Cellphone of the Future: Nokia 888

Nokia 888 claims to be the cellphone of the future. The device is so compact and ultra portable that you could bend it, mould it to any shape, you can even strap it like a wrist watch. 

This new concept was designed for Nokia Benelux Design Awards by Tamer Nakisci. It runs on Liquid Batteries, Flexible Touch Screen and Speech Recognition technology. It can sense your touch and teach itself (artificial Intelligence). Best of all, it lets you send your form (shape) to other 888 users (Mould it in a shape of the heart and send to your girl friend ;) ).

This phone has only appeared on the drawing board till now, so it might take few more years before its available to consumers. It actually reminds me the famous James Bond Movie, where Agent 007 carries all such Gizmo Gadgets.

Here’s a small video clip, just incase your more curious about the future:

    Very hot phone indeed. I bet this bad boy will cost a pretty penny when it comes out. I couldn’t get the video to work for me on Firefox though.

    I’d definitely pick one of these up if I could afford it, but I’d probably have to wait until the price dropped when everyone already had one. Oh well. =D

    Chad: Yeah, Even I’m planning the same thing

  • http://www.stunning-babes.com paul

    wow, there sure are some dumb ass people in the world.

    which part of “IT IS A CONCEPT PHONE” do you morons not get?

    Do you understand that it is NOT available?

    It does NOT exist?

    it’s still coming?

    There are not 5 in the world.

    stupid neanderthals

  • Triple

    My God, u people are soooo dumb! (i agree with u Paul)

    Cant u see it’s only a CONCEPT PHONE? It means it’s only ‘available’ in the mind of the designer or in your dream. It’s not even endorsed by Nokia, so it’s purely fantasy!
    Still dont understand?
    Ok, here’s a simple example:
    Ever seen Starwars? U know, Darth Vader..Luke Skywalker.. The hologram thing in the movie looks cool, doesnt it? U can talk to your girlfriend and see her standing naked in a 3d form right in front of u, 12 inch tall.
    So tell me, r u still stupid enough to ask someone where can u get the hologram thing, as if it really exists?
    Can u tell the difference?
    Btw, here’s an extract from Wiki:
    “The Nokia 888 was a bracelet-like fantasy phone concept designed by Tamer Nakisci. This phone is neither designed or endorsed by Nokia. It won the Benelux design contest in 2005, despite the fact that the technologies described in the design are not feasible today.”

  • felix

  • lol

    I got my nokia concept phone from the same rich uncle who died in Africa who I was his sole heir. Leaving me $250,000,000. All I had to do was send my credit card information for processing fees…
