Half of the U.S. population already has smartphone 

 In the United States, almost half the population has a smartphone. It is expected that smartphones represent 54% of handset sales in 2013, versus 46% in 2012 and 35% in 2011. Until now expected that the barrier of 50% was exceeded in 2015.
Many are connected to the time they wake up until the time they go to sleep. About 79% of them give their messages on the handset within 15 minutes and 62% neither agree expect this quarter of an hour to pick up the phone.

The elasticised display idea isn’t something new as we have seen hoards of device concepts being crafted around flexible, bendable and even foldable displays.
