Transparent Phone Based on AMOLED and E-Ink Technologies is Ideal for Forgetful Users

Are you the type who forgets to charge a cellphone? Then the Second Life Mobile Phone concept is for you! Created by Cho Sinhyung and Jeon Jungjae, this device uses an AMOLED screen, that’s powered up when the handset has plenty of battery and switches to E-ink screen technology when standby mode kicks in.
Transparent Phone Based on AMOLED and E Ink Technologies is Ideal for Forgetful Users
Also we’re dealing with a transparent phone, with a degree of transparency that’s influenced by the battery level of the device. This means that the display will get more transparent as you run out of battery. This is a great way to remember to recharge the handset, if you’re the forgetful kind.
As far as the Second Life Phone design is concerned, it looks pretty nifty, since it’s very slim and reminds me of a piece of glass with minuscule hardware components inside. Also, the Home button has got to the coolest of its kind we’ve seen. Great job!

Apple iPhone 4

The new 4th generation iPhone from Apple is another breakthrough in mobile technology. It features the same A4 processor as the iPad, and with the improved power management can handle up to 10 hours of Wi-Fi browsing, 7 hours 3G talk time, 40 hours of music playing, or 300 hours standby time. The design has been updated as well to a more industrial look, while also making it thinner and smaller than the current model.
iphone4
Apple has also included 802.11n wifi, assisted GPS, bluetooth, 32GB flash storage, accelerometer, compass, gyroscope, and the list goes on. As Jobs mentioned in his announcement the six-axis gyroscope should be useful for game developers to use in ushering in new types of mobile games for the iPhone.
A much needed improvement is the camera, which has been upgraded to 5MP with an LED flash that can also be used as a flashlight while filming videos. While 5MP isn’t as much resolution as the new HTC phones have, it also includes a backside-illumination sensor which results in much better photos, especially in low-light conditions.

camera
The camera is also capable of recording HD 720p video at 30 frames per second and comes with built in movie editing software for editing and uploading directly to the internet, though most users will probably want to buy the $4.99 iMovie app which features much more robust editing features than the built-in software.
Probably the biggest development in the new iPhone is the “retina display”, so called because the pixels are so small that you’re eye can’t see them from more than a couple of inches away. The pixel density is 326 pixels per inch, and on a 3.5 inch display results in 960 x 640 resolution and more than 4 times the pixel density of the 3GS. Here is an example of the old 3GS display and the iPhone 4G zoomed in:
res
Wow, now that’s resolution. Apple now holds the record for the most pixels per inch on a mobile display but even so it’s still a close call between the new iPhone screen and an AMOLED screen, such as on the Samsung Galaxy S.
Of course with the new iPhone comes a new OS, now called simply iOS 4 (”phone” was dropped because it’s also used on the iPad). The new update allows several new features including a form of multitasking, folders, and sever hundred other small updates.
videoVideo calling is supported on the new iPhone with an app called FaceTime, and it works very well. The only snag is that it currently only works on WiFi networks due to bandwidth constraints, and only between 2 people with the new iPhone. Jobs says that he’s working with mobile operators to make FaceTime available over 3G networks soon, which will actually make it a useful app instead of a novelty.
The new iPhone is currently available for $199 from AT&T with a 2 year agreement and current owners of iPhones can upgrade even if they’re current 2 year upgrade time limit hasn’t run up.
*update*  In the first 3 days of availability Apple has sold 1.7 million of the new iPhones and set a world record, I guess the people have spoken.

Porsche Design Smartphone Captures 3D Images


Designer André Duarte Silva created a very interesting phone concept, the Porsche Design Smartphone. Using a slick aluminum case, the device comes with a huge multitouch display and reminds us of the iPhone 4. There’s also a speaker on board, between the glass and aluminum body, increasing the device’s appeal and acoustic potential.

There’s also a Quick video access button on the right side of the phone, allowing the user to create home videos, while at the back of the Porsche concept phone you’ll find a dual camera system. One of the cams takes 5MP photos and shoots 720p HD video with stereo sound quality and even records 3D video. Tridimensional photos can also be shot, plus there’s an LED flash on board.
This is an Android unit with custom apps and we have to say that it’s rare a stylish handset gets so many cool specs, especially in the camera and media department.

Pillete

Pillete
Pillete, the new concept of Bluetooth headset is so tiny, it’s almost invisible to the untrained eye when you are wearing it. So you don’t have to worry anymore about looking like Robocop when walking down the street with it, but you have to consider the possibility of people starting to think you’ve lost your marbles and you’re talking to yourself.
The downside is the fact that people have different sized ears and the device might be too small and slip out or to big and not fit. People who often use earphones will tell you I’m right. But once they’ll figure out a way to make the Pillete adjustable, this design will be the future of all headsets.

Nokia N950 Brings a Twist to the Original Design of the N900

Nokia N950 is the creation of Vladimir Zorin, an interesting upgrade of the N900 design. The device is able to slide in two directions, revealing a 3 row QWERTY keyboard in one sliding direction and a numeric pad plus the D Pad segment of the QWERTY slider in the other.

The handset looks pretty bulky and we bet MeeGo would fit right on. The first type of sliding mechanism, shown in the image above is designed rather for nostalgics, than for practical use. Who would need numeric keys once we have a touchscreen and QWERTY keyboard available?

Flex Click Cellphone Really Makes Your Feel the “Touchscreen Click”

Flex Click Cellphone Really Makes Your Feel the Touchscreen Click
Ever wanted to combine the touchscreen experience with the feeling of pressing a genuine physical button? Valentin Neda has the next best thing, through a phone design called Flex Click, a cellphone that provides tactile feedback while pressing touch buttons on the screen.
Micro switches are placed under the curved Soft Touch display and they’ll reduce the stress on the user’s fingers, for an unique touch experience. These switches can be pressed in the spot where one expects to find a real button or control and they also depend on the displayed content, as the concept’s creator claims.
Is it just me or is there something screaming BlackBerry and WebOS about this device?

S7 is the First Windows Phone 7 Fashion Handset

S7 is the First Windows Phone 7 Fashion Handset
We’ve seen a Windows Phone 7 concept before, but this time we go the way of fashion handsets and discover the S7. The work of Enever Design, this phone uses a bamboo case, shaped like a camera and specs that include a micro SIM, an SD card slot, micro HDMI and USB ports.
There’s an 8MP camera with Xenon flash on the back and Windows Phone 7 runs the show on this device. Dedicated camera buttons will also come in handy. When Windows Phone 7 launched, 10 devices were shown to the public, all of them with very cool specs, but none of them as elegant as the S7. However, the new models can still be customized and turned into fashion phones…

The Nokia "Morph" Concept phone

The Morph Concept 

Launched alongside The Museum of Modern Art “Design and The Elastic Mind” exhibition, the Morph concept device is a bridge between highly advanced technologies and their potential benefits to end-users. This device concept showcases some revolutionary leaps being explored by Nokia Research Center (NRC) in collaboration with the Cambridge Nanoscience Centre (United Kingdom) – nanoscale technologies that will potentially create a world of radically different devices that open up an entirely new spectrum of possibilities.
Morph concept technologies might create fantastic opportunities for mobile devices:
  • Newly-enabled flexible and transparent materials blend more seamlessly with the way we live
  • Devices become self-cleaning and self-preserving
  • Transparent electronics offering an entirely new aesthetic dimension
  • Built-in solar absorption might charge a device, whilst batteries become smaller, longer lasting and faster to charge
  • Integrated sensors might allow us to learn more about the environment around us, empowering us to make better choices
In addition to the advances above, the integrated electronics shown in the Morph concept could cost less and include more functionality in a much smaller space, even as interfaces are simplified and usability is enhanced. All of these new capabilities will unleash new applications and services that will allow us to communicate and interact in unprecedented ways.
Flexible & Changing Design
Nanotechnology enables materials and components that are flexible, stretchable, transparent and remarkably strong. Fibril proteins are woven into a three dimensional mesh that reinforces thin elastic structures. Using the same principle behind spider silk, this elasticity enables the device to literally change shapes and configure itself to adapt to the task at hand.
A folded design would fit easily in a pocket and could lend itself ergonomically to being used as a traditional handset. An unfolded larger design could display more detailed information, and incorporate input devices such as keyboards and touch pads.
Even integrated electronics, from interconnects to sensors, could share these flexible properties. Further, utilization of biodegradable materials might make production and recycling of devices easier and ecologically friendly.
Self-Cleaning
Nanotechnology also can be leveraged to create self-cleaning surfaces on mobile devices, ultimately reducing corrosion, wear and improving longevity. Nanostructured surfaces, such as “Nanoflowers” naturally repel water, dirt, and even fingerprints utilizing effects also seen in natural systems.
Advanced Power Sources
Nanotechnology holds out the possibility that the surface of a device will become a natural source of energy via a covering of “Nanograss” structures that harvest solar power. At the same time new high energy density storage materials allow batteries to become smaller and thinner, while also quicker to recharge and able to endure more charging cycles.
Sensing The Environment
Nanosensors would empower users to examine the environment around them in completely new ways, from analyzing air pollution, to gaining insight into bio-chemical traces and processes. New capabilities might be as complex as helping us monitor evolving conditions in the quality of our surroundings, or as simple as knowing if the fruit we are about to enjoy should be washed before we eat it. Our ability to tune into our environment in these ways can help us make key decisions that guide our daily actions and ultimately can enhance our health.
