How about a tablet-like Nokia smartphone, dubbed the E8 and bringing back the good old times of the Communicator? If that sounds appealing to you, you’ll probably love the Nokia E8 pictured below and created by Ibrahim, that detailed his view in the comments on this article.

We’re dealing with the mockup of a device that packs a 4.5 inch capacitive AMOLED display with 960 x 640 pixels of resolution. As far as connectivity goes, you get GSM/WCDMA/4G and at the back you’ll find a 12 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss lens and dual LED flash. There’s also a full QWERTY keyboard in there, with dedicated function buttons.
The CPU of choice for Nokia E8 is a 1.5GHz ARM Cortex dual core processor accompanied by 64MB of internal memory and 512MB SDRAM. MeeGo OS 1.0 or Symbian S^4 will handle the software side of things. Considering the love that people had for the Communicator series, this device would certainly make it big.

Hardi Kõvamees is the creator of the Nokia E11 device, a touch and type handset that might as well be the next direction that the Finns are taking, as they wait for Windows Phone 7. This device combines an unusual physical keyboard (at least for Nokia) with a screen that I assume is about 2.8 inches in diagonal.

The result is the Nokia E11 design, that supposedly comes with a pretty good camera, maybe an 8 megapixel one. A front camera, 8GB of internal memory and this handset would be perfect. Also, the price should be around 150 euros, if possible…

Tommy Incrosnatu, the same guy who created this incredible
Nokia concept phone, also designed the following device that you see below. He teamed up with artists Oula Runila and Miika Herranen, while the background photo belongs to Shawn Palmquist. As you can see, we have a very modern smartphone interface right here, with simplified graphics.

This concept was created in order to showcase the beauty of Finnish nature and the result will be a 60 second TV clip, according to Tommy. We can only imagine that we’re seeing here is a very beautiful Nokia phone design of the future, with an UI that reminds me a bit of MeeGo and a Home menu that’s a little bit like the one in HTC Sense.
The widgets are pretty interesting in this interface and while the device looks like the HTC HD7 a tiny bit, we can’t help but imagine it to be Nokia smartphone with Windows Phone 7 on board…

The series of Nokia concepts continues, this time with a device called Nokia N8-01, created by BlackIdea. The handset comes with realistic specs, that include a 4 inch Clear Black Display with Super AMOLED technology and Dragontrail Glass protection.

Nokia N8-01 runs Symbian^3 with PR3.0/Belle and its most impressive feature is the 16 megapixel camera with autofocus, Carl Zeiss Optics and True Zoom technology. There’s also a Xenon flash in the mix, plus a 3.2 megapixel camera at the front with Facelock feature. Hardware also includes a dual core 1.2GHz CPU, 1GB of RAM, 1GB ROM, 32GB storage and a microSD card slot.
HDMI and Dolby Digital Plus round up the specs list. Nothing new about the design of this Nokia model, but maybe we’ll learn more about the newcomers during tomorrow’s Nokia event in Athens.

Who better to design a Nokia concept phone than a Finnish man?
Tommy Incrosnatu showed us the incredible Windows Phone 7 design below, that he created with Symbian Anna in mind, at least when it comes to icons. Tommy was not happy with the Metro UI, so he added a bit of Nokia twist to the whole experience.

Hardware keys were dropped, as they were considered to be redundant and easily replaceable with multitouch gestures. The designer claims that the phone concept is pure fiction and we have to give credit where it’s due for the background images: De Vetpan studios – Siebe Warmoeskerken (for the first) and Denis Travin (for the second).
At first glance this handset doesn’t say it’s a WP7 device, but the Nokia presence is felt powerfully, fitting in with what we’ve heard recently, about Microsoft allowing Nokia to customize Windows Phone in any way they like. Great work for Tommy!

Clifford Charles created the Nokia 31 concept phone, the touchscreen smartphone you can see below. It comes with a 5 megapixel camera with flash, a 3.5 inch touch display and easy to use interface. The Nokia 31 is a device with a modern look, very straight and thin.

It’s got voice recognition and a beautiful aluminum chassis, that’s already classic for the Nokia N Series devices. What’s interesting is the facade of the device, placed under the screen and looking like a touch surface with commands displayed. Clifford Charles’ design is innovative and could be used on a future Windows Phone 7 Nokia unit, if Microsoft is open-minded enough.

Imagine a Motorola Aura without the bling and with a more spiritual side to it. We’re talking about the Nokia Tibetan phone, meant to spread the Buddhist teachings and provide features like a Tibetan calendar and a list of holidays. There’s also a function that allows you to play certain songs and a Tibetan language input method.

Nokia Research Center was also involved in this project and even a mockup of the device was created. Nokia chose the circular shape to define tranquility and observed the life and style of Buddhist monks, in order to create this handset. The Prayer wheel concept was integrated in this device too. You have to know that while praying, monks will rotate a prayer wheel once and this mechanism has been miniaturized and integrated into the new Nokia phone.
There’s also a keyboard guard included and a touchscreen display, plus the design mimics a drape on a monk’s robe. This stylish and elegant phone is also spiritual and Buddhist, so I guess that it will be very popular in countries where Buddhism is widely spread and also in Hollywood, where this religion has become… trendy. More details about the project and pictures of the mockup can be found here.

Designer Jason Wang decided to switch the classical Nokia design into something more modern: a slate phone with a 21:9 aspect ratio. The device is dubbed Nokia E2 with is symmetry across a horizontal axis. We’re dealing with an ergonomic handset that features a large display with a 4.6 inch diagonal.

The screen is a ClearBlack display and the Nokia E2 also comes with a 12MP camera with Xenon flash and 720p video capture at 30 fps. There’s also a microSD slot on board, that together with the SIM slot is revealed by pulling the left side of the back cover, that tilts (2 degrees). A noise cancelling microphone is also present on the slate, as well as a proximity sensor and an accelerometer.
HDMI output is supported and we’d love to see this concept working with an original dock of sorts. It would make a great media playing unit!

We’re back with a
Nokia concept phone, the N14, pictured below and running MeeGo 1.2. This handset was created by designer shihuzaan and it’s part of the Dream Nokia initiative from
Mynokiablog. 14 designs are already available, so maybe this explains the name of the Nokia N14. Now let’s see what the phone is all about.

As you can see, its design is a combo between the Nexus One and Nokia Prism, complete with an anodized aluminum casing and a 4 inch Super AMOLED display, with a 800 x 480 pixel resolution. This is a capacitive multitouch display and at the back of the N14 we also find an 8MP camera with Carl Zeiss optics, autofocus and Xenon Flash.
There’s also a 1GHz CPU on board, 512MB of RAM, 16GB of internal memory and a microSD card slot. Bluetooth 3.0 and a removable battery complete the specifications of this unreal device, that we hope Nokia will see and draw some ideas from.

You know it’s time for a new
Nokia concept phone when everyone’s talking about dual core smartphones at CES 2011 and people seem to have forgotten about the sleeping Finnish giant… Designed by a guy called “SuperHero”, Nokia N9 is a MeeGo handset that popped up on the
MeeGo forum.

We’re dealing with a sliding QWERTY smartphone with a curved design, a huge display and support for advanced multitasking. For example you can chat on the phone and perform other tasks with ease. Bluetooth and social networking are also supported and we’re sure a potent camera and HDMI out found their way in there, too.
Definitely loving that edge to edge display without borders!
