The Diploid Dual Display Phone

You probably are, just like most of the people these days, a very busy person who wouldn’t like to spare a moment in their attempt to make the most of their job, of their knowledge and, of course, of their daily experiences. And because you are such a person, the dream of having a cell phone that gives you the chance to use it for two different things in the same time must become reality as soon as possible.

I’m sure you had to attend many video conferences in the past and it always had to happen something that needed your attention. You had to write an email or an IM, but you couldn’t, because there was another task that you needed to accomplish.

The Diploid Phone, created by designer Tao Ma, is a cell phone that will certainly solve your problems, because it is equipped with two different screens. One of them allows you to watch a movie, for example, to browse the web, if you like, or to be part of those video conferences that get you bored you to death, while the second is able to do whatever you want it to do.

The Diploid Phone comes with two cameras, with touchscreen interaction games, with the possibility to display 3D content and to view e-Books just like in reality. This means you’ll be able to turn the page using the two screens.

Great concept, isn’t it? Too bad it’s just a concept.

Easter Moai Concept Phone

Concept phones are usually as futuristic as a cell phone can be, different from anything that people are being offered on a regular basis, because after all this is the whole point with such devices, and have the most unbelievable list of features that one could ever come up with.

This is why we all love to see what designers from all over the world have in mind, even if for many of these concepts is very difficult to become real products.

<-300x250 Medium Rectangle - center->

So here we have the latest creation of designer Joong-Ho Choi, which is a beautiful concept that is known under the name of Easter Moai cell phone. Two of the most important and interesting features consist of the touch sensitive LCD display and the rather peculiar placement of the function keys, which are all placed on the corner edge of the phone.

This ingenious key layout gives the possibility for a bigger display to be implemented. As you can easily see for yourselves, the Easter Moai is equipped with a dock which has integrated speakers. This way, you’ll be able to use it not only as a phone, but also as a portable music player.

The Easter Moai is a quite good-looking cell phone that people would really like to see in the shelves as soon as possible, but I wouldn’t advise you to put your hopes too up. It is a concept phone and I assume it will stay this way, at least in the near future.

The G9 concept phone

Most of the times designers from all over the world focus their attention on the handsets released by famous companies such as Nokia, Samsung or Apple, having in mind one dream and one dream only: to create a handset that has one of those logos on it and that becomes a commercial product. It’s not a dream that comes true very often, of course, but hey! Dreaming doesn’t cost a thing!

The G9 mobile phone, created from scratch by designer Ichiro Iwasaki, is a cell phone that people can use everywhere. And when I say everywhere, I mean any place of the earth. It’s a slider that is equipped with frame that is made of stainless steel and is exchangeable. In addition, it has slanted keys and three finishes that can be customized.

<-300x250 Medium Rectangle - center->

You can easily observe the large display, which is, of course, an LCD, that is characterised by both a minimalistic and a sophisticated design, the “double keypad” layout that has a quite interesting design and a stylish and elegant dock.

As usual, because we’re talking about a concept phone, just like many others that we have seen before, we shouldn’t get too excited about the G9, because I don’t see it coming out very soon. Maybe the idea is alright with many companies, but they have their path very well established already, and it would be difficult for the concept to become reality.

Edit music for ringtones with Ondo

Music enthusiasts are everywhere: they have no nationality, no other characteristic besides the fact that they are in love with sounds. They love music more than anything, even if some might disagree. If you think about it, music is the perfect refuge for people who get into all sorts of troubles that don’t let them live in peace.

This is why music-centric cell phones are exactly what the doctor ordered for those who find their comfort in listening to their favorite tracks. And here we have a brand new concept that was especially designed for music enthusiasts. The phone is known under the name of Ondo and it was created by Pilotfish, “a progressive industrial design and product development studio” that is headquartered in three important cities of the world, Munich, Amsterdam and Taipei.

<-300x250 Medium Rectangle - center->

This is just a concept, for the moment, and it’s in fact a dedicated music editing phone concept. From now on, people can enjoy an entirely different music experience, as they have the possibility to benefit an interactive capture and editing of sounds.

Ondo is all made of flexible materials that are all form-sensitive, and allows the user actually bring changes to recorded sounds. And if you want to know how you can do this, let me tell you that you don’t have to do anything besides twisting and bending the phone. This way, you can not only hear, but also feel the musical effects of your creation.

There are three display “sticks”, all of them being removable. “In their normal state, the ‘sticks’ act as a unified touch display for the mobile device. When removed, each can be separately clipped onto a musical instrument or person to capture live sound. Like a portable recording studio, Ondo makes mixing tracks easy, because each ‘stick’ picks up isolated sounds from each individual instrument”.

And guess what? As soon as you finish your creation, when the inspiration has done its job, you can make your friends and family a surprise, by sharing with them what you’ve created. The only thing you have to do is to just send the recording via MMS.


As I said before, Ondo is a concept, but it seems that the technology that such a device would require would become available in the “near future”. We don’t know when, but we’re looking forward for editing music for ringtones based on our own imagination.

Waiting for the new iPhone release

People are crazy about the iPhone, even if many devices were announced and presented to the public as iPhone’s competitors and the manufacturers were very enthusiastic about them, hoping that they will actually knock the Apple handset down. They are crazy about it and they can hardly wait for the new generation which is expected to become available sometime time summer.

While waiting for the new iPhone release, we can enjoy ourselves with concepts that are meant to help us forget a little bit about it and make the waiting somehow pleasant. Not to mention the fact that some of these concepts look actually pretty good.

<-300x250 Medium Rectangle - center->

So, let’s welcome a newcomer that was created by designer Adam Hutchinson. The phone was called “iPhone Magnet” due to the fact that the most impressive feature on its board is a magnetometer. I’m not sure whether the designer agrees with the name, but let’s call it this way for the moment.

As far as the features are concerned, this iPhone concept comes with a 5 megapixel camera with autofocus, an integrated mirror, a frontal video camera, video voicemail, a magnetometer which is nothing but a digital compass, meant to increase the gaming experience, the changing-color home button which is designed to alert you of the new messages that you receive and of the notifications and an internal memory of 32GB.

The main disadvantage of the iPhone Magnet is that it’s just a concept for the moment and chances are pretty high for never hitting the mass production. Unfortunately.
