It looks like a really expensive trapper keeper, or just a trapper keeper. The keyboard below is too small to completely cover that screen when closed, so that other flap must be there to cover it completely.

The flap may well be it cover, but it is also a support. It looks like it would fall over without the flap because the display looks larger/heavier than the keyboard. Every time you take your hands off the keys it would fall backwards.

Notice how the top is actually resting on the 'tent' formed by the display and the flap.

Maybe the "flap" has an optical drive, usb ports, etc?? Maybe the entire entire keyboard is the mousepad ?? Can OLEDs be used as touch screens - maybe it's a tablet? More info please!

This is probably CGI. . . look at the reflection of the keyboard and compare it to the screen. The screen doesn't look realistic either!
