Retro Concept: The iPhone Goes Steampunk at the iLounge

Last week we picked the iPhone Omega from the iLounge iPhone concept contest and we thought that the design was pretty futuristic and what we bring you today takes you ‘back into the future’. It is the Steampunk based iPhone from designer Karl Vanderbeek and there is only one way it can win the iLounge Contest and that is if ‘Captain Jack Sparrow’ is a part of the judges’ team. I mean this is as crazy as you can get when talking about an iPhone design and it would suite no one but a pirate. The design supports 3G with up to 5G connectivity and magic touch windows with an inboard power plant. Also, there is a videocall camera with a lighting quick keyboard and location tracking. The photographic abilities of this phone are laudable and so is the choice of materials used to give it form- brass, walnut and leather or bakelite. I call it the ultimate pirate phone!

Multimedia concept phone: Does everything, almost!

Nowadays, cheap generic drugs multimedia-rich concept phones are popping out like anything. The latest here with us is a multimedia concept phone designed by Jakub Lekeš. The slider phone has a huge touchscreen display and even the back-lit keypad is touch-sensitive. One side of the phones shows a number of ports, including the memory card slot, audio jack and the USB connector. A sliding touch QWERTY keyboard is concealed under the display and there is a 4.3 megapixel autofocus camera with digital zoom support on the back. The most interesting feature is the side of the phone that shows the running track. The multihued lighting adds to the overall beauty of the device. I am sucker for large displays and QWERTY keyboards, so I am all praise for this concept design. More shots of the multimedia concept phone after the jump.

Well hello beautiful! Where have you been all my life … and why do you look like a … console?! Yes, this is a handset for the ladies, but boy does it look like a gaming device for boys.

I’d like to feel the texture of Motorola Piccolo’s edges, as I bet it’s soft and neat to touch. I’m betting on a touchscreen phone here and I’m wondering what the deal with that space underneath the sliding mechanism is. A little hiding place for makeup tricks?

    I wonder how many of the concepts and ideas actually appear 100% in the market? Sure its a good breeding ground for ideas but its more like pick n mix

  2. Jessica says:

    Cool phones, but I’d prefer if the cellphone companies worked on fixing the issues with their current phones instead of trying to one-up each other and release flawed products just so they can be the first (or keep up with the first).

    example: iphone signal issues and shitty breakable glass
