Imagine an electronic display that can hold newspapers, magazines, books and personal notes – and that you can fold up and put in your back pocket. That’s Newsboy, a conceptual project for which Propeller designed the hardware, services and interfaces. We also shot a series of short films showing how the product could be used from day-to-day.

We envisioned a display that’s thin, flexible and almost weightless, and that feels friendly and non-technical. The graphic expression is clean and light, and you can skim through it just like a regular newspaper.
