Sony Ericsson is one of the most respectable mobile phone manufacturers that caught the attention of many conceptual designers.
One of them is Vincent Palicki from France that has his own view about the possible future look of such a phone.




Keeping the base design line of the Sony Ericsson phones’ models, he created this new case concept to fit the candy bar style Walkman mobile phone.



He used a combination of black, orange and a little bit of grey to leave a stylish look, and then he added four stainless steel buttons separate from the phone’s interface and a tiny USB key to let users transfer directly the music files, pictures and videos from the PC.
