Samsung gaming phone patent

What we have today is transformable Samsung phone patent. Apparently, the Korean giant thinks its the bad ergonomics that keep mobile gaming space from exploding. Hence they want to fix that with a phone like the one pictured above.

As you can see for yourself, the device they’re talking about has a clamshell form factor with the non-fixed display that can swing away to reveal another keypad with game controls and an additional speaker. The end result is a portable gaming console with better sound effects and standard gamepad ergonomics.

Looks cool! Now, dear Samsung if you could negotiate with Nokia and get into NGage, that would awesome. ;)
