Chinese smartphone-maker Oppo unveiled the new concept mobile X 2021 at the recently concluded INNO DAY 2020 on November 17 in Shenzen.
The company has used a special 2-in-1 plate that enables the Oppo X 2021 to easily expand and contract seamlessly. As you can see in the teaser video below, the phone's rear-camera module stays anchored at one side, while the rest of the back panel is capable of extending to allow the flexible wraparound OLEd display to roll out to its full length. It can expand from 6.7-inch to 7.4-inch, the same as a normal tablet

For damage protection, Oppo has incorporated a 0.1mm Warp Track high-strength screen laminate.
Compared to other concept foldable phones we see such as Mi Alpha, Huawei Mate X series, the wraparound display is not practical as they are vulnerable to scratches and physical damages with an accidental drop, while the Samsung Galaxy Fold series and the most recent Oppo X 2021 are a bit more secure in terms of design language.
