Awesome Cellphones

Kristian Ulrich Larsen’s nifty Flip phone concept is a triple display handset running stock Android that pops out like a tent, collapses into a curved slate, and folds out like a little book. (Thanks Michael!)

Sony Ericsson’s latest phone has a 4.2″ touchscreen, 1GHz CPU, microSD support up to 32GB, and runs Android 2.3. Its 8.1mp camera is more than capable of shooting 720p HD video.

The Bio Phone is powered by sensors and “artificial muscle actuators”, allowing it to respond to both digital and physical stimuli by lifting and folding its cover in various ways, much like a notepad.

The Optimus 2X smokes its current competition with a speedy dual-core Tegra 2 chipset, running Android 2.2. The phone also offers full 1080p video recording and playback, and an HDMI output.

Both have a 1GHz CPU, GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, HDMI out, front camera, IR blaster and universal remote app. The phone has a 4″ screen, MicroSD slot, and 5mp rear camera. The tablet has an 8″ screen.

We could really use something like Fabian Hemmert’s concept, which lets callers indicate how important their call is, and receivers filter which calls go through based on their importance.

The popular P2P file sharing program gets a mobile version. Forget about Bluetooth, Frostwire for Android lets you share files and chat with other smartphone users either locally or over Wi-Fi.

So how good is Google Goggles at recognizing locations? These guys decided to dress up as Mount Rushmore and see what the app did. The results are surprising. It’s all part of Google’s Demo Slam.

Patrick Hyland’s Nokia E-Cu (E for environment, Cu for Copper) concept is a mobile phone with copper skin that charges itself by conducting heat to an integrated thermogenerator. (Thanks PistolPete!)

Thinking about picking up a Windows 7 phone? HTC just took wraps off of 5 models, including the HTC 7 Surround, Mozart, Trophy, Pro and HD7. There’s something for just about everyone, everywhere.

Nokia built 14 prototypes of this phone, which externally resembles the communicator used in Star Trek, complete with the iconic grille and lights. We wonder if it has the Enterprise on speed dial.

The Proxima concept is actually two devices – the rectangular phone and the wrist strap, which has a proximity sensor. The latter will beep if the two get separated by a certain distance.

BlindType is a ridiculously intelligent mobile touch typing app. We wouldn’t be surprised if we found out that fairies and unicorns made it. We hope it supports other languages as well.
