Its shape looks like two leaves and a flexible, curling stem that allows the mobile phone to be worn around arms, necks and on the user's wrist. The Leaf Phone by Anastasia Zharkova is a hybrid of sorts in that it runs on both solar power and electromagnetic batteries. It even has a virtual keyboard that can be projected onto any surface.
