Samsung’s Hybrid Desktop Notebook Concept: 14-inch AMOLED Screen, 2.7mm Thin [Oled]

I’m not sure how practical this design would be on the road, but it sure looks sweet. The stunning screen supports a resolution of 1366 x 768, and because it’s AMOLED, has a 1000000:1 contrast ratio, and 300cd/m2 brightness.
