Apple has a long and, sadly, uneventful history with Liquidmetal. The promising and shockingly strong material has so far been used only in small iPhone components, but now it has finally made its way to a smartphone housing. Unfortunately for Apple fans, there’s still no sign of a Liquidmetal iPhone.
Instead, an Android handset called the Turing Phone is set to become the first ever smartphone to sport a liquid metal case when it launches in the coming weeks.
Turing Robotics Industries has created the first “Liquidmorphium” phone the world has ever seen.
The handset’s housing is stronger than aluminum, steel and even titanium, so “Bendgate” certainly won’t be an issue here.
The liquid metal housing also features a great chrome look… on the front, at least. The back is a bit oddly designed, and it will likely only appeal to a narrow range of users.
