An electronic device is disclosed that comprises a housing 81 and a flexible display, which may have respective portions 82a, 82b, 82c and 82d. The portions may be accommodated between respective hinges 84a, 84b, 84c, 84d, which are arranged as a mechanism for enabling a transition between the first mechanically stable position and a second mechanically stable position. The display is viewed from a direction 85. The hinges are operated independently from each other, enabling a plurality of angulations of the flexible display with respect to the housing 81.

1. An electronic device comprising: a housing;a flexible display adapted to be displaceable with respect to the housing, said flexible display having a first mechanically stable position and a second mechanically stable position, wherein said first mechanically stable position and said second mechan
1. An electronic device comprising: a housing;a flexible display adapted to be displaceable with respect to the housing, said flexible display having a first mechanically stable position and a second mechanically stable position, wherein said first mechanically stable position and said second mechanically stable position are enabled for different angulations of the flexible display or portions of the flexible display with respect to the housing; anda mechanism arranged for enabling a transition between said first mechanically stable position and said second mechanically stable position, comprising: a first portion having a first hinge point, a second hinge point, and a rigid arched segment disposed between said first and second hinge points; anda second portion hinged to each of said first and second hinge points for facilitating said first mechanically stable position and said second mechanically stable position of the flexible display,arranged such that during said first mechanically stable position of the flexible display, a portion of said flexible display is partially stored in said arched segment of the first portion and forms a curvilinear configuration, and during said second mechanically stable position of said flexible display, said portion of the flexible display leaves said arched segment and forms a planar configuration supported by said second portions. 2. The device according to claim 1, wherein said mechanism is arranged for enabling said flexible display having an intermediate position, between said first mechanically stable position and said second mechanically stable position, and said mechanism is arranged to cooperate with an elastic locking unit so as to keep said flexible display in a stable arrangement. 3. The device according to claim 2, wherein the flexible display is arranged to be pivoted with respect to the housing, said display or housing comprising a recess, and the elastic locking unit comprising an elastic material arranged to be compressed at least to partially fill the recess. 4. The device according to claim 1, wherein the flexible display is arranged to be pivoted about a shaft, the mechanism being arranged with a spring cooperating with the shaft and being arranged to enable the transition between the first mechanically stable position and the second mechanically stable position. 5. The device according to claim 4, wherein the spring is a torsion spring. 6. The device according to claim 1, wherein the flexible display is slidably arranged with respect to the housing using a frame, the module comprising a tension spring cooperating with the frame. 7. The device according to claim 1, wherein the flexible display is adapted to be moved between an at least partially retracted state and an at least partially extended state, said partially retracted state and said partially extended state being implemented either for the first mechanically stable position or for the second mechanically stable position. 8. The device according to claim 1, wherein at least one mechanically stable position is arranged for enabling data input into the device. 9. The device according to claim 1, wherein the device further comprises an illumination unit arranged to cooperate with the flexible display arranged in a first mechanically stable position or in a second mechanically stable position. 10. The device according to claim 1, wherein the first viewing position or the second viewing position is arranged to enable at least a partial viewing mode.
