In the hardware the hard Bart is in the mechanism, in the middle were the Where there are wonders and inventions, there are a lot of Mechanics work; because of the display and the wires and to make it with a great materials so that do not safer after a long time. the companies like Huawei and Samsung said that they were working on it for a year. they did not elaborate how exactly it worked, But they were satisfied with praise.
