Google has released a new video, primarily focused on the team behind the project, but also showing some interesting details about what could be the future of smartphones
In the video, we see an early prototype of the device's main module, the Endo, into which all other modules are inserted. The modules are kept in place using electropermanent magnets, meaning their magnetic effect is controllable (via apps, for example) and can be maintained without a continuous supply of electrical energy
