Designer Aaron Martinez created both this great LG concept phone for the Design the Future Competition and the one pictured below. This new device is the LG Eco Solar Power Cellphone, that charges thanks to incandescent and fluorescent lights, plus direct and indirect sunlight, relying on a photovoltaic cell.

As far as the handset is concerned, it comes with Windows Mobile on board (we don’t know what flavour), a brilliant display with advanced touchscreen technology, LED backlight technology, an LED illuminated magnifier, Microsoft Silverlight browser and a 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution. At the back you’ll find an 8 megapixel camera with support for 1080p video capture.

The magnifier mechanism is pretty interesting and it’s detailed in the picture below, as it includes a 5 inch round lighted unit, with support for 10x magnification and +3.00 diopters. The camera on this LG concept supports 200x digital zoom, progressive, it comes with an image stabilizer (optical) and max shutter speed of 1/2000 sec. This is probably the best LG phone design I’ve seen over the past years… What do you say?
