To ensure the efficient functioning of your cutting-edge cell phone you need a lot of different devices (such as: charger, Bluetooth headphones, speakers and so on). Of course it’s not a trouble to get them, more by token, that the majority of these devices are generally available with the cell phone. Yet the problem is about the possibility to lose some of them. Moreover some people do not like “boring” devices that perform just a single function. That’s why a group of Korean designers invented a new all-in-one gadget.
This concept made in the form of a small cube is named MCube. It performs a lot of functions and can be used as a wireless charger, Bluetooth speaker, and information display. The only thing you should do is to place your mobile near the MCube. Using short range induction technology, your cell phone gets charged while all the information like date, time, messages, and caller ID are transferred to the MCube’s built-in display. What’s more, the touch controls on the gadget enable you to access your mobile’s music files and play them with the help of built-in speakers via Bluetooth.
Thus it’s not a device that can be used outside while you are driving a car or walking on the street. However, due to its great design, usefulness, and functionality it is a kind of gadget that you should have at home in order to make the usage of your cell phone easier and more pleasant.
Wireless technologies became very popular and they develop day by day. All wires now seem very old-fashioned and uncomfortable to work with. However, all gadget lovers still face them every time they recharge their devices. Unfortunately, there are no ways to emit electricity wirelessly; it is theoretically possible but still too far to be a reality. Imagine how cool will it be to have some places, where you can put all your gadgets and they will recharge their batteries without any hassle with different chargers and charging slots. While this cannot be done now, there is a possibility that this cool gadget will be a step forward in this direction.
The Wild Charger looks like a small pad, but it is not a simple one. It is a charger pad that will charge your gadgets while they are on it! It can seem fantastic, but it is true – you can just leave your gadget resting on it and the battery will charge. Of course, this task cannot be done with each and every gadget, because there is a special adapter still needed to be plugged in the gadget, and this adapter must come in contact to the pad to work. It is a simple but effective combination – just put devices on the pad, without need to plug in and out charge cables constantly.
This idea sounds great, and it is not a concept – this Wild Charger pad is available now, 60$ for the pad and 35$ for the adapter. Unfortunately, it only supports Motorola Razr V3 for the moment, with an gadgets. Maybe in not so distant future we will get rid of all wires at all, and gadgets like this make it even closer.
Sometimes looking at the great variety of all those high-end cell phones it seems that nothing more can be designed. However the creativeness of modern designers and engineers shows that the previous statement has nothing common with the reality. Thus, according to the latest news NEC will produce absolutely innovative liquid-powered cell phones in the near future.
At present given gadget is just a prototype, so there is no possibility to mention all the novelty’s features. Yet, this NEC liquid flask cell phone seems to be the combination of being liquid-powered and touchscreen. It means that the liquid inside will drain as you are using the phone, allowing you to see just how much power left. It sounds incredibly, isn’t it? As usually, nothing said about the future price of the concept, but as NEC informs it is going to be released sometime in 2008. Of course it’s hard to imagine what functions this phone will be able to perform but according to the given picture it won’t have even a usual digital camera. If so, this will be a “slight” disadvantage of this gadget.
In case all the mentioned features are true, the demand for this flask phone will be very impressive, because quite a significant amount of people will want to buy such an original and unusual device. At the same time all those who like this concept should hope that it will not be a Japan-only release.
When a company has hard times with selling its products about the only way to improve its current situation is to invent something new that would help to increase significantly the number of total sales. Of course it’s not an easy task but in case any company succeeded in doing so, its problems would probably disappear. Motorola that is not doing well these days is just in the similar situation.
Motorola has recently filed patents for a rollable cell phone display. It seems that this new display will feature “an interface that is made of a flexible material and has an active and inactive position. The interface is coupled with a reservoir. The reservoir is used for storing electrorheological fluid. The user interface system also includes a source that is coupled to the reservoir. The source is used for applying an electric field to the electrorheological fluid when the interface is in the “active position”.
Due to the fact that no additional information about this gadget’s characteristics, design and price is given there is no possibility to say something about its usefulness, advantages and disadvantages. Yet the concept itself is very unusual and original, so after its introduction to the market some lovers of this cell phone may appear. But now the only thing we can do is to guess about the name that would be given to the product in the future.
There is no need to talk about the significant role of cell phones in our life. The fact that they turned into something really necessary and important explains why almost everybody has a cell phone. Thus, people started paying more attention not just to the functionality of these devices, but to the way they look as well. As a consequence we got a great variety of them pretty looking phones.
Recently Swedish company Goldwish designed Le Million cell phone that is considered to be the most expensive in the world. It’s made of red, yellow and white gold and encrusted with diamonds of 120 carats. Moreover its backboard is covered with crocodile leather. As regards the price of this gadget it almost corresponds to the name that was given to this device, yet it’s a little bit bigger – 1,43 million dollars.
There is no information about the characteristics of this cell phone and probably this is quite an understandable fact, because they are of no importance. The edition of this gadget is very limited – just three Le Millions will be sold in the world. So everything shows that the uniqueness of the gadget is the only feature, with help of which designers intend to attract people’s attention, especially of reach ones.
As far as we – mere mortals – are concerned I don’t think that someone will really dream about this cell phone. Of course it looks great, but it’s too expensive. Such kind of things should be kept shut up in a safe and not put into the pocket.
