Innovative products allow you to launch something new and implicitly better.The truth is, however, that it is not always possible to find if a given idea is pure madness or maybe a manifestation of genius.Therefore, the world is full of strange products, including very unusual phones.
In the past, articles about the strangest phones have already appeared on cellomania.The topic is surprisingly intriguing, so you can go back to it regularly and find something new and amazing each time.I invite you to familiarize yourself with the five strangest phones, which I think ... fully deserve a place in this list.
Siemens Xelibri - ugly and impractical phones?
Siemens Xelibri is a cell phone line presented in 2003, characterized by an extremely original design.George Appling, the president of the Xelibri brand, once explained that they plan to release two limited collections each year.The Xelibri line itself was to focus primarily on the original design and connections with the fashion world.
The plans were very ambitious, but it turned out that the market was verified by bizarre telephones and decided that they were not attractive enough.Therefore, sales were at a very low level and the project was abandoned in 2004.
However, it is worth appreciating the bold appearance of the Siemens Xelibri series devices, because they were actually quite brave.For example, Siemens Xelibri 6 resembles a powder and even has a built -in mirror.Only is this practical, potentially attractive solution?It turned out that unfortunately not.
AE+Y - jewelry pretending to be a phone?
Telephones should resemble other objects with which we have contact every day?Not necessarily, but such an idea once captured the imagination of the creators of mobile devices.Since there was an idea for a telephone, why not make a phone referring to the watch bracelet?
Yves Behar is a designer from San Francisco, who designed a cell called AE+Y for the Danish company æsir.Interestingly, this is the first time this designer could work on the phone, but earlier Yves Behar has already won prizes for design breaking the limits of technology and style.
AE+Y can be associated with jewelry because of the unusual appearance, but even the process of creating this equipment rubs against the world of jewelry products.AE+Y is largely folded by hand.The phone went to the market in 2011 and the price was at the level of about 7000 euros.
Magic pen with a phone and flashlight
Why should I waste a place in my pocket by wearing a regular phone in it?Certainly many people had this type of thoughts, so there were such inventions as a phone built into a pen, which is ultimately a flashlight.Weird?Perhaps, but at least we will impress with every person who will see us with it ... or at least we will amuse it.
Such a Servo device can be an independent cell, just insert the Nano SIM card.Of course, if we feel like it, we can also pair them with our current phone via Bluetooth.It is worth emphasizing that the pen has a built-in 4.6-inch screen and even a FM radio.It is difficult to say whether users will ultimately be satisfied with the quality of this equipment, because the price is only a few dozen dollars.
Nophone - this phone is not a phone call
I took so far into the abyss of the internet that I finally came across Nophone.It is a product of the fact that there is nothing in it.On the official Nophone website you can see graphics, which perfectly explains the multitude of functions of this "device".First of all, there is no phone call, but there is also no screen, music, camera.The price is only $ 12.
The creators ensure that Nophone will have a positive impact on our relationships with other people.In addition, I found a mention that there is no guarantee for this piece of plastic, and the "device" itself is not intended for use to any extent.In other words, Nophone is an ordinary joke.Strange phones can take various forms.
Nokia N-Gage-an unfortunate combination of the world of games and cells
Almost everyone has heard about Nokia N-Gage and it cannot be hidden that this is a strange creation.The idea seems to be cool because many people like to play something outside the home.After all, we have times when Nintendo Switch is very successful, so there is a lot of potential in portable consoles.Unfortunately, N-Gage was a badly thoughtful product that was in many ways.
The vertical screen was not the optimal choice for the device that was to ensure comfortable playing.The smoothness of the fun when playing leaves much to be desired, and control using the Nokia N-Gage buttons was also not the best solutions.
The desire to change the game to another was associated with the need to remove the battery from the phone.Well, it's a phone, so how did it play in this role?The device required very unusual holding while conducting conversations, which was uncomfortable for the user.
Nokia N-Gage is the right ending for the article about strange phones, because it is a perfect example that the intentions may have been good, but ultimately something went wrong.More or less such a description usually fits most devices that go to combinations with the strangest electronics.
