Japan-based designer **Marimo-san** has come up with this ingenious mobile concept that allows the user to detach the screen portion of the phone. This mechanism would allow you to conveniently engage in video phone calls on the go.

Marimo-san's design offers different variations of what the various attachments would look like, including a [widescreen PC-style display](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lg-stanbyme-2) and [dual screen video viewer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inkreader).

I actually have to say that the [modular design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hmd-fusion) is not far-fetched, and I hope we see something smiliar on the near future.
