Mysterious Concept Phone Looks Like Da Vinci’s Cryptex

And we thought touchscreens were tough enough to handle… Seems that Marc Schomann has just designed a mobile phone that will make your head spin while trying to dial the number of your close friends. Why? It will be a rather puzzle-based experience…

The handset hasn’t got a name yet, but what we do know is that it uses haptic technology and provides physical feedback while you try to make a call. In order to use this device, you’ll have to twist its circular sections till they’re aligned and they display the number you’re searching for.

After aligning the segments you’ll have to twist the first section of the handset till its LED turns greed. And that’s how you make a “Cryptex call” ladies and gentlemen.

Folks who have seen The Dark Knight must have been impressed by Heath Ledger’s performance, but there was more to that movie for the tech geek in you. The hit we’ve been waiting for made a special appearance…

Word goes round that the Nokia XpressMedia 5800, or the Tube as we’ve come to know it was spotted in Morgan Freeman’s possession in a scene of the motion picture. The handset hasn’t been launched yet so maybe this is a sign of things to come. Got more on this story? Feel free to comment below.

Searching for T610 remakes? Then the Sony Ericsson Remi’s the one for you, but sadly the handset’s not part of the great July 22 SE launch. We don’t have its official naming yet, but we know that Remi is a candybar, maybe one pertaining to the T series.

Sony Ericsson Remi features a 3.2 megapixel camera (no autofocus) with a flash LED and HSDPA support if you want to get online really fast. Some may call it a “generic version of the W890″. We’ll give you more details as soon as we get them, but till them let’s check out the phone some more in the following leaked pics.

The rumour goes that we’ll be seeing a huge launch on July 22 and by “huge” I mean many handsets and not an iPhone challenger, yet. Among those there’s also the SE W302, codenamed Feng, basically a S302 with a Walkman branding.

Feng’s got a 2 megapixel fixed focus camera, a 176 x 220 pixel display and it’s based on the A2 platform. Feast on the pics of the device below!

We’ve met this Motorola concept phone a couple of months ago and saw it in the hand of David Beckham, at least in theory. Check out this article for its list of specs and check out the following pic for a fresh image of the device designed by Ravefolk from the Motorolafans forum.

Sony Ericsson’s got something coming for the next week and I’m talking big launches, but till then sunils120 from Esato is back with his latest design, the W870i concept phone.

This is yet another Sony Ericsson Walkman concept phone, styled up and ready for summer parties. It sports a candybar design, a great keypad placement and I’m taking a lucky guess: a 3 megapixel camera, maybe?

Wearable Concept Phone is Not Nokia 888

July 18th, 2008

Since the surfacing of Nokia 888 as a concept we’ve seen quite a bunch of wearable handsets and the one below is no exception, looking like the previously mentioned device. It’s designed by HyunSung Lee and can be worn like a bracelet, but this is a longer one than you would expect. I’m guessing it features a flexible OLED screen, but check out that original camera placement, right on your wrist.

Sci-fi? Yeah, that’s what the designer said too…

Cyclop Robot Operated From a Mobile Phone and Taking Pics

July 18th, 2008

Here’s a pretty interesting concept of a robot designed by Oleg M. and called Cyclop that can be operated from a mobile phone and used to take pics, record video, or just walk around the house. The robot’s feet are a sure indicator that it won’t be a speedy mini-Terminator but rather a very early version of the Transformer toys.

Nokia 6639 Concept Cameraphone Features Photoshop and… Zippo Lighter?!

We usually try to avoid the extra sci-fi concepts, in order to check out the more realistic ones, but this one’s too funny. 6639 is something that would probably never hit the streets this decade or the next.

It features a Swiss army knife, a zippo lighter and a digital  SLR camera (double digit megapixels) plus Photoshop. Notice that ton of brands in the picture above. Imagine Sony Ericsson and Nokia working on the same device… I can pretty much imagine what each company contributed to the Nokia 6639 cameraphone, but what’s Volkswagen doing there?
