Concept Phones

These are some of the weirdest concept phones that i could find on the web.Check it out!

Snake Phone 

Having a phone that can wrap around your wrist or arm could be useful, especially if you're prone to losing things. But that doesn't mean anyone would want the snake-phone created by Product Visionaires curled around their entire arm. Imagine unwrapping one of these things if you get a call. Yikes! Shrink the design down to a manageable size, and this phone would probably be a hit with people who frequent the gym.

Hidden Displays 

In another take on the flexibility of OLED, some concepts point toward using rollable displays to create small phones with large screen sizes. This one, designed by Tao Ma, was apparently inspired by one of humankind's finer creations: the D battery.

Nokia Morph 

When Nokia conceptualized the Morph cell phone, it wanted to show how nanotechnology could radically change portable electronics. The Morph is made of transparent and flexible material, is self-cleaning, and includes nano-sensors that can learn from the environment. In one example, Nokia suggests that the nano-sensors would be able to detect airborne threats and alert users to them.

The Morph, as its name suggests, would also change form, the company says: "Using the same principle behind spider silk, this elasticity enables the device to literally change shapes and configure itself to adapt to the task at hand."

Nokia has a video posted to YouTube that delves into how the Morph works.

Transformer Phone 

There are Android phones and then there are alien phones, like this one modeled after a Transformer. This concept phone, created by Parkoz Hardware, is a must-see in action. Put it this way: You wouldn't want this phone ringing on your bedside table in the middle of the night.

Window Phone 

This Window Phone concept, from designer Seunghan Song, constantly "illustrates" the weather via the phone's user interface. Seems a bit too weather-centric for my tastes, but it's definitely a perfect gift for Al Roker.
