Metell A1 Slide Is a Basic Phone Concept, Now Slider

(1 votes, average: 2.00 out of 5)

We liked Andras Nemes’ first concept phone, Metell A1, because it was simple and it eased our way into 2009 with its less pretentious design. Now, Andras Nemes is back, with a redone Metell phone, the A1 Slide, basically the same handset, plus a sliding keypad and music controls beneath the call keys.

I wonder if those media keys are easy to use, as they’re quite close to the edge of the device… Also, there are very few low end phones nowadays without a camera, so it would be nice to see a future Metell device, keeping the same simple design and adding a 1.3 megapixel camera, at least.

[Thanks Andras Nemes]
