Xell from the Esato board introduces the T767 concept phone as the successor for Z750, claiming that the “Z” series will vanish sooner or later. The specs of the device make this handset a mid-to-high-end phone.
We’re talking 3.2 megapixel autofocus camera, HSDPA, GPS and a 2.2″ QVGA display. And all of that packed in a clamshell device, a rather tiny handset if you ask me.

Got lost between your fancy car and the local shopping mall? The Bi comes into play here, a concept designed to work as a guide that uses GPS in order to show you the way around those expensive shops. Simon Enever is the designer of this original handheld and you might know his name from that brilliant S-series phone concept.
The “Bi” uses WiFi and 3G connections plus tons of guides that can be downloaded and interactive maps giving you a better choice of top notch brands and fashionista must-haves. There’s also a product search function featured on this device and you can visit the home pages of most important stores.

It’s raining Nokia beauties, while the iPhone 3G hype is decreasing, so Sony Ericsson couldn’t hide their latest Cyber-shot wonder any more. We’ve got the first pics of the famous “Shiho”, the Sony Ericsson C905 handset, that features an 8 megapixel camera. Also, a couple of specs surfaced, just hours ago…
We remind you that the handset is not official yet, as for the specs, it comes with that above-mentioned 8.1 megapixel camera (with VGA video capture) and a 2.4 inches QVGA screen. Also, the C905 packs GPS, Bluetooth and HSDPA support under the same hood.
No info on the price or the launch date yet, but it should be about 550 euros or $ 770.

You know what this concept watch (hopefully phone too) reminds me of? The modu phone, that can use tons of jackets to be turned into upgraded devices. The “Lobster” device below can also have modules attached to it, offering it all the extra features that the basic package doesn’t include.
What’s neat is that the segments of the Lobster look like an arm band, even if you keep adding more, like the MP3, GPS, hard disk, camera or cardiometer accessories.

We’re in the environmentally friendly phones universe again, checking out the SLIQ concept, made out of recycled aluminium, a brilliant way of saving Mother Earth, by replacing plastics. Also, it keeps the handset light, but let’s talk about the features of this phone designed by Mike Serafin.
SLIQ comes with an organic LED display, that uses 40% less power than standard LCD screens.
Also, the phone is user-powered so it’s brilliant when travelling abroad and lacking chargers. After it’s ready to be thrown out, the SLIQ can be disassembled and reused. The phone also comes with a pretty neat interface, Sleep mode and a GPS.

Got too much free time and don’t know what to do with it? Let your phone teach you how to have fun and what to do for fun. At least that’s the case of the Pantech Twist phone, destined for the youth market and designed by Gregory Davis. It features a jaunt function that recommends various activities (likes trips) based on your location, preferences and profile.
The Twist Phone also allows you to read reviews or watch videos, before going to see a movie it recommended you. Of course, the handset features GPS and its touchscreen display is great for viewing maps, movies or pics, either horizontally or vertically.
Twist includes a full split-surface touchscreen that allows you to view content on one side of the screen and browse through the menus on the other side.

Let’s guess! What features a 4.8 inch touchscreen, EDGE and 3G connectivity and a “bullseye” optical mouse? It might just be the best MID you’ve ever used, or Lenovo’s Ideapad U8, a device that’s got them all: PDA features, GPS, MID functionality and even manages to replace a notebook, at times.
Productivity increases when you’re using Ideapad U8, as it features location-based apps, helping out when you’re visiting a new town plus hand writing recognition with the aid of its touchscreen. Introduced at Intel’s IDF, this useful MID also supports MS Office and includes a 12 key num-pad and our guess is that it’ll run Linux.
Feast your eyes on a video presentation of U8:

After the N98, the N88, the Nokia 101 and the Helsinki concept phone comes this bad, black handset, the Nokia N99 concept. It’s a mean, mean calling/texting/video recording machine featuring an 8 megapixel camera, 16GB internal memory, a 3.2″ display and GPS.
How about that D-pad? Was it designed with N-Gage games in mind or just comfortable navigation?
Also on the specs list of this phone we find MP3 playback, DivX, MPEG and AVI video playback and WiFi. Here’s the old N99 concept below, that we saw an year ago, about the time when the patent of this device surfaced on the Internet. So Nokia, which is it going to, QWERTY or D-pad?

It’s not Samsung BlackJack we’re talking about, nor is it the successor of the famous handset, but rather a pretty good-looking concept, designed by Yuri Kim, from South Korea. The phone resembles LG Prada quite a bit, but it comes with a couple of neat features like a camera mode, MP3 mode, DMB-TV and GPS mode.
What’s really interesting is that you’ll control the phone with motions that resemble those used to handle a deck of cards. A slide to the side makes the handset enter GPS mode, while a slide in upwards makes it enter the MP3 mode. It’s an original way to control the phone and the interface is also worth mentioning for its qualities.

Ever wanted to go to the North Pole or to the centre of the Earth and blog from there? Well, you’re lucky I came over this device you can see in the picture below, the Duros Tablet PC, environmentally sealed and ready to take a serious punch. It’s designed by Roper Mobile Technology and it’s the largest tablet PC with such an “attitude”.
It features WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity plus the classic GSM/GPRS/EDGE/UMTS and it’s got a GPS, so you’ll never get lost on the way from the North to the South Pole. Its display is a 8.4″ SVGA touchscreen, while the heart of this hardcore device is an AMD Geode LX800 processor or an Intel Celeron M 1.0 GHz one. Add 1GB of RAM and 120GB storage to Duros and you’re all set.
Duros runs Windows XP or Linux and it uses hot swappable batteries. It relies on a 44Wh battery that only uses 5W of energy while in standby mode and 15W in standard use. More specs and details here.
