The EME concept phone, designed by Shao Wei Huang, is the phone that could soon replace your portable gaming system, MP3 player, and cell phone. A dual screen setup is used in tandem to fit whatever function is currently being used. One screen is embedded on the outer shell and the other slides out from underneath.

Used singularly, the shell displays functions for calling and basic manipulation of data such as contacts, photos, etc. Sliding out the second screen lets you access secondary data. Turning the whole unit sideways turns it into a portable gaming device able to mimic any control scheme via touchscreen.

Here's an interesting concept phone designed by Yun Liang. Inspired from traditional Chinese Scrolls, the phone has a display that, when not in use, neatly rolls into the tube.

All numeric key functions remain tactile running along the side of the scroll as opposed to touchscreen. This makes it possible to use without having to unroll the screen. You would only do so when accessing media and data.

Here's the Seesaw concept phone designed by Karsten Willmann. The phone has all a concept phone needs: high contrast OLED display, thin form factor plus the number key pad and soft keys sitting nearly flush with the surface. Really interesting about this concept phone is the bulge protruding from its center-back, hiding a camera and flashlight. If you lay it on a table, the screen will stay angled just enough so legibility isn’t an issue.

Here's an interesting concept of a wireless speaker system for your home. The system is designed by Per Brickstad and is a Plug and Play system that uses a a plug with bluetooth sender for mp3 players, computers, cell phones which sends the signal to the speakers that have a bluetooth receiver. Of course, ideal would be that all the devices be wireless and no cables needed, but so far this is the best alternative available.

The transparent speakers beside the fact that they are very stylish, deliver high sound quality and have a transparent LCD-display in the glass, providing various information, like song title or equalizer.

What's your mobile phone got to do with your health? Apparently nothing. But, after last week we presented the Japanese service that told you what you've just eaten, we present now a concept phone that takes things further. If the service was based on responses from health counselors which analyzed photos of your food taken with your camera phone, this concept is even better, it allows users to track their health through nutrition and fitness.

The phone is equipped with eNose technology in order to "smell" and recognize foods eaten by their unique chemical signature. It tracks what you eat wherever you go, and will periodically analyze info to let you know what food groups you are missing. Designed by Katherine Lee, the phone has a major flaw, it is a concept phone and we know what happens to concept phone.
