HTC One 3D Feels Like a Combo of HTC One and HTC First
Suman Chatterjee created a new an interesting HTC concept smartphone, one that combines a bit of HTC One and a bit of HTC First, or so it seems to me. As you can see, the back is pretty much similar to the HTC One, but this time we get a 3D dual camera.
This model comes with Beats Audio and probably has some cool special apps for 3D capture, photo and video editing in 3D. Since the handset handles 3D content, it may require a more potent CPU, maybe something like the Snapdragon 800 or even a superior generation. The last HTC 3D phone and the last LG 3D phone were not big hits and the whole tridimensional graphics trend was gone pretty fast.
2013 brought us zero 3D phones and tablets, at least big brand models and I guess that it will stay this way. I suppose people would rather have bigger batteries and higher resolutions than useless 3D graphics. How do you feel about the HTC One 3D?

Virtual Touch Concept Smartphone of the Future
Here’s a concept that doesn’t necessarily feature 1000 cores in its CPU, but rather relies on a new touch technology. The handset uses Virtual Touchscreen tech aka ViTo, a control system that allows you to replace the typical touch experience with a gesture based one. This design is created by Andrey Kamaev.
The handset you see here incorporates high resolution cameras withdynamic stabilization and infrared range detection. The display contains aside from lines of pixels some sensors with sensitivity to infrared radiation. Infrared pixels will receive light in a narrow spectral range. This smartphone of the future also comes with an unique interface and control via voice and gestures.
There will be two cameras on the edges of the phone, that will detect your eyes and detect the time needed to focus on a virtual keyboard. The phone concept “feels” your point of view and the desired key. The smartphone will support induction charging and it will be powered by photovoltaic cells, too, so sun charging is also here.

Sony XTRUD is the Way Phones Should Be in 2013
People, we’re in 2013! Designers, wake up and check out the calendar! Can you honestly say that you like ANY of the LG Optimus series devices?! Can you honestly say that the Galaxy S4 has a good design? Isn’t the Nokia Lumia already outdated? Aren’t all the Xperias 99% alike? Well, here’s finally some novelty: Sony XTRUD.
Sony XTRUD is to me what Apple could have come up if they kept their wild spirit of the early 2000s… Designer Rybarczyk Francois did a fantastic job with this smartphone and he deserves a standing ovation for it. The Sony XTRUD concept features a sustainable and economic vision of the modern world. The handset incorporates one part that includes all the components and a simple aluminum profile.
The idea is to easily replace all components via a modular concept. You can change the camera module with the newest Sony cam, but let’s be honest here: phone makers are afraid of such devices, because they wouldn’t sell their new models, that’s why we’ll never see such a phone. The Sony XTRUD feels a bit like a combo between a Nokia Lumia and an iPod, with a twist of the designer’s unique approach.
A nifty idea is the volume control by rotating the wheel at the lower area of the device. The result here is a beautiful and original Sony Android concept, that actually looks hot and will last for many years thanks to the modular approach.

Samsung Galaxy Fit Plus, a Deepak Ahuja Concept
If you don’t like the current Samsung Galaxy Fit, you may like its follow-up, the Galaxy Fit Plus model, rendered below. The creator of the Samsung concept phone is Deepak Ahuja, who has a big number of such devices designed by him.
The handset runs Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean, relies on Samsung’s TouchWiz Nature UX and packs a 4.3 inch Super AMOLED HD display. The screen supports a 720p resolution and has a density of 356 PPI. Other specs include a 1.2 GHz quad core processor, an 8 megapixel camera with LED flash and a 1.3 MP front camera with BSI.
Samsung Galaxy Fix Plus also packs 16/32 GB of storage, 1 GB of RAM, a 1950 mAh battery and its design line is pretty straight and rectangular, not rounded like the past Galaxy S units from 2012 and 2013, for example.

Android 5.0 UI and Lockscreen Concept by Jinesh Shah
While strolling around Google+ in search of smartphone renders and designs, I came across the following Android 5.0 UI concept created by Jinesh Shah. He imagined an interesting interface, that can be seen below and yes folks, we’re truly a long way from Key Lime Pie right now…
Straight from the lockscreen you would have access to Voice Search and a redesigned and scrollable Google Now lockscreen widget that’s integrated with the Notifications. Basically, he evolved the idea of lockscreen widgets into something more. We’ve also got a transparent task bar now and a brand new and minimalist clock widget. There’s also a redesigned Google Search widget in this Android 5.0 render, but not by much.
Now you can pull down the notification bar in part and see a bit of it, for example the music widget. There’s also the option to have overlapping widgets that can be “tucked” to the sides, as shown in the images below. By the way, the 30 Seconds to Mars new album is not that good… aside from the track End of All Days.

Samsung Galaxy S5 By Bob Freking is Ready! Aluminum Back, 64 GPU Cores (Video)
Bob Freking had a pretty nifty Galaxy S4 concept before the handset was launched and now he’s back with the Galaxy S5 he promised. As you know, we had a teaser for you here and now that teaser has turned into a full blow picture gallery and video.
Bob’s Galaxy S5 concept is accompanied by epic music in the video below and the device packs a 16 megapixel S camera with optical image stabilization and 6X lossless zoom. There’s also support for add on lenses and this cam takes in 10 times more light, bringing it to the best low light performance in the world of mobile. At the back we’ve got a waterproof aluminum cover and upfront the design reminds me of the HTC One X a bit…
This Samsung Galaxy S5 render also involves a 5 inch Full HD Super AMOLED Plus display with better pixel arrangement than the Galaxy S4. We’ve also got a new TouchWiz with fresh gestures and less memory usage. The CPU here is a 2 GHz 8 core Exynos 6 with 64 GPU cores and specs also include 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of internal memory. The smartphone is capable of 4G LTE and it’s even prepared for 5G…
This device comes with wireless charging, it’s light at 120 grams and an thin at 7mm in thickness. The Samsung Galaxy S5 made by Bob Freking relies on a 4000 mAh battery, it will have a Google Edition and it runs Android 4.2 Jelly Bean. Fancy this model?

GTA V iFruit Phone Render is Ironic, Funny (Video)
Since this week brought us the controversial iOS 7, we might as well handle the situation with some irony. That’s why we present to you the T3 made iFruit phone concept associated with GTA V, the upcoming hit game from Rockstar.
The game has a handset called the iFruit featured in it, a clear jab towards the Apple handset. This is a fictional device that will allow the gamer to see the game map and apparently you’ll really need this item during gameplay. There were previous iFruit devices in the GTA series, allowing you to make calls and view the map, so this new and improved unit will be interesting to see.
Now the phone will include social networking features, apps and even a mobile store for purchasing weapons and such. The iFruit phone features a glass panel separated from the back body of the device and the device clearly adopts an edge to edge display. The lower side features pretty much the same speaker and port design as the iPhone 5.

Vive Phone Concept Features Tegra 3 CPU, New OS Called Mize
Tired of all the operating systems flying around? Well, there’s a new one here, a concept called Mize OS, that has been created by Raflykurnia from Deviantart. This device is his first concept, so be gentle with the critique.
The phone render body is inspired greatly by HTC Touch Diamond and the handset comes with 4G LTE, WiFi, a 4 inch IPS LCD display with LED backlight and the Nvidia Tegra 3 quad core processor at 1.6 GHz as the brain. There’s also 1 GB of RAM, 32 GB of storage and a 38 megapixel autofocus camera with LED flash and Carl Zeiss lens. We’ve also got a 3 megapixel front camera and that new OS called Mize.
It’s supposed to be a very simple platform, one that seems to show the main social networking apps and the browser as tiny square shortcuts at the bottom of the screen. Everything is floating on the screen, without proper icons to hold them down, if I can say so. Other specs of this Vive Phone include a Wolfson audio chip, a 2600 mAh battery and a Kevlar body that’s shock resistant and water resistant. What do you think of this phone design?

The Nokia EOS feels very familiar now, because it has been leaked on all major sites out there, in real life hands on pictures. Today we get a new render based on those pictures, coming straight from Yugatech and Bob Freking.
The device seems to have a big and bulky camera module, with an unknown resolution, etched on as “XX”, so it has two figures. It’s most likely the 41 megapixel sensor of the Pureview 808 model, but in a reshaped format. The handset is supposed to be able to do oversampling and loseless zoom, with 3.6x zoom on stills and 12x zoom on clips, without having to compromise on the quality.
Carl Zeiss technology and optical image stabilization are also included, as well as great low light performance. Nokia truly wants to rival the DSLR cameras with this handset, from what we understood. Nokia EOS also brings a Xenon flash, a mechanical shutter and an improved lenses system. Hopefully the price will be decent…

Sony Walkman is Back Baby! New Model Adopts Xperia Branding, Looks Hot!
Victor Cao offers us a new vision on the Walkman series of music phones, giving them the Xperia branding and a new look. The new device pictured here is the Sony Xperia W concept, that has an iPhone-ish back side.
The handset uses virtual buttons on Android and the typical Walkman player with minimalistic options. This Walkman smartphone has all the best acoustic technologies one can get nowadays: Clear Bass, Clear Audio and S Master MX. Specs of the Xperia Walkman W include a 1.7 GHz quad core CPU, probably the Snapdragon 400 or 600 and 2 GB of RAM, as well as NFC and maybe 32 GB of storage.
The concept Xperia measures 9 mm in thickness and seems to bundle a pair of sexy headphones. The front side of the Xperia W is to me a combo between the latest Xperia designs and the Samsung Omnia 7 for some reason. By the way, the display incorporated here is a 4.6 inch Triluminos HD display, probably with Full HD res. Is the Walkman back yet?

iPhone 6 Design by G. Tedoradze Makes the Camera and Screen Bigger
Giorgi Tedoradze sent us an email with an iPhone 6 concept he designed, one that adopts a bigger screen and a bigger camera. The handset has a thinner body, so it probably measures around 6 mm in thickness or so.
It also comes with a larger Retina Display, possibly 4.5 or 5 inches in diagonal. Inside the device there’s the Apple A7 chip, that might as well be a quad core unit. All of the specs are speculations, of course, so take them with a grain of salt. I’ve heard rumors about the iPhone 6 packing a 12 megapixel camera, although a Sony 13 MP cam would make more sense.
The front side design of this iPhone 6 feels different compared to that we’re used to, with a rectangular shape with rounded corners. For some reason, this render feels a bit plasticky to me. How about you?
