Motorola is working on its first rollable phone

Codenamed Felix

Pulling away from other smartphone companies mounting a comeback to the industry, Motorola has seemingly found its niche in today’s evolving market. A few years ago, the company brought back its iconic clamshell phone, capitalizing on the ongoing foldable trend. Now, fresh off the razr’s renewed success, Motorola is going all-in on quirkier form factors. It is working on its first rollable phone called the Felix.

First outed by Evan Blass on 91mobiles, Motorola is working on a prototype with the incredibly niche form factor. Instead of folding the screen, the Felix reportedly unrolls its screen horizontally, resulting in a wider tablet-like device. Previously, the company experimented on rollable devices that expanded vertically.

Naturally, an ongoing prototype won’t turn heads just yet. There is no indication on when Motorola will release their prototype to the public. As it stands, there are no rollable smartphones available for purchase yet. Some companies, like LG and OPPO, have released prototypes but not actual marketable phones.

With the form factor still at its humble beginnings, it’s hard to tell whether rollable phones will gain some traction in today’s market. However, the varied array of companies experimenting with rolling displays might show some promise for the future of such a form factor.

GIGABYTE to focus on end-to-end AI infrastructure, deployment at COMPUTEX 2026

Showcase to highlight how production AI is implemented, used on real-world scenarios

GIGABYTE has announced its showcase for COMPUTEX 2026, centering on the theme “Future Landing.”

Moving away from conceptual AI training models, the company’s exhibit next month will focus strictly on the immediate implementation, scaling, and real-world operation of production AI infrastructure.

According to the company, the exhibit addresses a major industry shift: the transition of AI from development phases into large-scale inference and physical operation.

Visitors can expect an interactive breakdown of the AI infrastructure lifecycle, structured into three distinct zones: Ready, Deployable, and Happening.

The “Ready” phase highlights fully validated systems simulated at GAIFA (GIGABYTE AI Factory Accelerator), the company’s dedicated facility in Taiwan.

To demonstrate rapid scalability, the “Deployable” section will feature modular, prefabricated infrastructure units that integrate compute, cooling, and power, all managed via the proprietary GIGABYTE Pod Manager (GPM) software.

Lastly, the “Happening” zone will showcase live, practical applications of physical AI and localized healthcare inference. Attendees can observe a live “real-to-sim-to-real” automation pipeline showing how AI models move from virtual simulation into active robotic systems.

GIGABYTE will also demonstrate point-of-care medical AI running locally, including real-time polyp detection and bone marrow analysis.

In addition to the primary enterprise infrastructure booth (first floor), GIGABYTE will operate a secondary exhibit on the fourth floor.

This dedicated space will showcase edge and end-user applications, specifically highlighting its AI TOP series. This demonstrates how the company’s hardware scales down from massive data center architectures to deskside deployments.

The GIGABYTE booths can be visited from June 2 to 5, 2026 at the Taipei Nangang Exhibition Center (Hall 1):

  • 1F K0802 (Enterprise)
  • 4F M0520 (Consumer)
