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…

The Basic Tab mobile phone design manages to achieve a new interpretation of the whole “iPhone thing”, copied over and over again by big handset manufacturers. Its designer, Jaren Goh focused more on looks, than on futuristic specs and he did a splendid job, so we might as well call this a fashion device.
Just look at the wide black screen at the front of the Basic Tab phone, a tad more elegant than Apple’s approach. Notice that the display is placed on top of a metal part and it gets a bit of RAZR aggressiveness going on. In case you’re not convinced that this is really a fashion phone, you should check out the camera’s metallic tab at the back. Precious, just precious…

Face it, we’re living in an eco-trendy era! No longer we see stars getting criticized by environmental organisations, as they donate everything they have to them, drive hybrid cars, use ecological phones and gadgets and become vegetarians. Well, here’s a phone for those people, the Vertu Essence, an eco-friendly device of 2015.
Vertu Essence was created by Wen-Sheng Hong and it comes with a toughened ceramic and titanium case plus a sapphire crystal screen that will probably last forever. Notice that cool farmed bamboo exterior granting the phone the eco-look plus the option of switching parts of the handset in the following years, as the technology evolves.

We’re back to 2015, with a Vertu handset designed for ladies this time, the Suave phone. This concept was created by Christopher Tak Cheung Yue and it’s the new definition of luxury and sophistication. It comes with organic shapes and turns into a comfortable interaction environment.
In order to make it a real Vertu, it includes precious metals like yellow gold or pink gold (front side) plus a titanium rim and sheep skin leather (back side).

Seems that most designers have 2 years in mind when creating the phones of the future: 2012 and 2015. After seeing 3 Nokia cellphones of 2012, it’s time to check out the Vertu line of 2015, which includes the Edge handset. This concept design was created by Samant Khanna and it’s a small 70 mm device with a touchscreen.
The Vertu Edge comes with a small frontal screen used for the basic functions and a foldable edge-to-edge touchscreen at the back of the handset. This can be folded upwards, converting Edge into a bar phone. The other specs are impressive too: built-in GPS, 16GB of internal memory, high-speed mobile broadband support and Office Mobile.
All of that is packed within a stylish handset, that I hope we’ll see on the market sooner than 2015.

Product design can be taken further now, as different gadgets start to imitate famous cars, planes or even draw their inspiration from videogames. This time we’re dealing with a famous car brand turned into a handset. It’s not official by any means (as far as we know), but the Aston Martin phone looks well enough to draw our attention. It was designed by Abhilash Chandrasekharan.
You’ve got to admire the implementation of the “headlights” and front of the car in the phone’s lower part. The only problem with this concept phone is its thickness, but I guess that a couple of diamonds and gold coating will make you forget about this handicap.

Patrick Widen designed a pretty interesting phone, the Zoos concept, that comes with a hot list of specs. It features 32GB of integrated Flash memory, 3G support and Foozoo’s OS. The main advantage of the device? Its thickness, as it seems that the Zoos is no thicker than a finger and even skinnier than a Hershey bar.
It also comes with a 256 bit encryption algorithm that manages to encrypt your phone calls and data, before they’re transmitted via the network.

One of the most beautiful concept phones can be seen in the following images and it tends to be original and chic, rather than sexy and breathtaking. The watch phone designed by Adam Huffman features a touchscreen and uses a Bluetooth headset in order to receive and make calls.
What about text messages? I’m guessing it features vocal recognition or something…

We might as well call this the “Couple Phone”, as two devices, laying side by side look very much like a couple in love. Plus, each of the Duofone units manages to add some extra battery life to the other, also doubling the resolution and creating a bigger common keypad. How cute is that?
The concept belongs to Daewoo Kim and it would be a pity not to see it in real life, specially with the EURO 08 coming up and the need for bigger portable screens to watch matches on.

Put your social boots on and start drooling for a gadget that finally allows you to check how popular you are on MySpace while walking to school. It’s a MySpace Mobile, a concept for now, or at least I think so, since I found it on Flickr. The device’s motto seems to be “A phone for friends”.
Now let’s see how friendly it really is.
MySpace Mobile features a pressure-sensitive retractable keypad and allows the user to send and receive comments, photos, videos and voice messages on the go. It also comes with Bluetooth profiles and supports synching with the PC version of MySpace Calendar.
In case you get bored, you can download and watch MySpace videos, get songs and ringtones from MySpace Music and of course use the MySpace IM. This concept phone supports 3G and Wi-Fi connectivity, comes with a full MP3 and video player and last, but not least includes patented “Touch Tabs” for unique control.
