The animated, unfurling organic LED (OLED) screen might remind some of the wizard world's Daily Prophet newspaper from Harry Potter. 

Samsung Display revealed their Rollable Flex concept this week, a monitor that rolls up and unspools like a scroll, or a tiny yoga mat. 

The device rolls up to about 2 inches (49 mm) and rolls out to a maximum vertical length of 10 inches (254.4 mm) — five times its storage height. 

Past foldable or slidable screens have at their best only been able to offer up a three-times scalability as their form factor. 

With Rollable Flex, Samsung hopes they can help consumers by making larger devices like laptops, tablets and display screens smaller and more easy to carry.
