Mobile phones have long and firmly entered our lives. Therefore, perhaps, each of us at least several times was busy choosing a new model. However, there are a huge number of almost identical gadgets on store shelves. And yet, manufacturers have sometimes released quite unusual concepts to the market. Here are 5 non-trivial mobile phones that will suit those who are tired of monotony.
1. Nokia 888
This unusual phone was presented in 2005 by designer Tamer Nakischi at The Nokia Europe Benelux Awards 2005. The concept was a device with a maximally movable body - it could be folded and even worn like a bracelet. However, despite the warm acceptance of the futuristic concept by potential consumers, the model was never put into mass production.
2. Xian Yan Wang XYW 3838
A fairly original concept was invented in Taiwan in the early 2010s, and its design was of the greatest interest. And the thing is that the gadget has a cigarette case on the back panel. This mobile is designed for smokers. However, the model, apparently, did not gain huge popularity: very few people even know about its existence.
3. Nokia 7280
But this model, which looks like an MP3 player, was released back in 2004 and was simply wildly popular. The concept does not have a keyboard; it is controlled by a joystick located to the left of the screen. Those who are nostalgic for the Nokia 7280 can find it in the online store.
4. Toshiba Portege G450
Almost fifteen years ago, this device appeared on the market and immediately attracted attention with its unusual design: the manufacturer developed a mobile phone with a bifurcated keyboard and very small dimensions - 36x98x16 mm. The G450 was presented in three shades - in red, gray and black.
5. Zanco Tiny T1
Despite the fact that in recent years consumers give preference to smartphones, some are still nostalgic for push-button small gadgets. One of the most recent developments was the concept of the mobile Zanco Tiny T1, which was presented at the end of 2017 by Clubit New Media. The compactness of this gadget is striking: the length is 46.7 millimeters, the width is 21 millimeters, and the weight is only 12 grams.
