Royole Corp, a manufacturer of flexible displays and smart devices, unveiled the world's first foldable phone last Wednesday, which can be bent and rolled to function both as a smartphone and tablet.

上週三，柔性顯示器及智能設備生產商深圳柔宇集團發佈了全球首款可摺疊手機，該設備能彎折、捲曲，可同時實現智能手機和平板電腦的功能。

The product, known as the FlexPai, is equipped with the Shenzhen-based company's latest flexible display technology.

這款名爲柔派的產品採用了柔宇最新的柔性顯示器技術。

The 7.8-inch high-resolution screen is 7.6 millimeters thick and can be bent over 200,000 times.

其高分辨率屏幕大小爲7.8英寸，厚度7.6毫米，可彎折20萬次以上。

Bill Liu, founder of Royole, said that the FlexPai, priced from 8,999 yuan, is designed so consumers need not buy smartphones and tablets at the same time.

柔宇創始人劉自鴻稱，柔派起售價8999元，設計這款產品是爲使消費者無需同時購買智能手機和平板電腦。

Liu said he hopes the company's ultra-thin, transparent and flexible electronics will help reshape the future of smart home, automotive, consumer electronics and wearable products.

劉自鴻表示，希望公司這款超薄、透明的柔性電子設備將有助於改變智能家居、汽車、消費類電子產品和可穿戴產品的未來。

To achieve that objective, Royole also said that it will invest 200 million yuan to encourage startups to create more content including games for the company's new device.

爲了實現這一目標，柔宇公司還表示將投資2億元，來鼓勵初創公司爲新設備創造包括遊戲在內的更多內容。

Royole attracted global attention in 2014 when it released the world's thinnest full-color AMOLED flexible display screen, which can be bent or rolled.

2014年，柔宇公司推出了可以彎折捲曲的、世界上最薄的全綵色AMOLED柔性顯示屏，引起了全球關注。
