The most extraordinary and awkward smartphones in the world
We present to your attention a selection of the most unusual phones. Some of them are so unusual that, in principle, they cannot even perform their main function well — the function of a mobile phone! Sometimes experts want to outdo themselves, but unfortunately, they lose. Let’s see how absurd are some smartphone models from different respected brands.
RIM Blackberry Porsche design
This thing starts our list. As you already knew, this phone from the company BlackBerry. The company wanted to release a super stylish, fashionable, pathos and expensive phone, but in the end, it turned out to be an awkward square phone with the evocative name Porsche Design. By the way, the price of this phone was $ 1,700.
Golden Buddha phone
So, the super-pheasant phone, which translates as “The Golden Buddha” can be bought for a hundred square meters, or rather it can not be purchased. Smiley It is made of gold and such a phone will be besides expensive, also terribly inconvenient. He weighs a lot, there are almost no functions in it and even the most important function of the call is not very good.
Motorola Flipout
Another phone with a syndrome of passion for the “Black Square” by Malevich. To the small and square case, Motorola tried to add a QWERTY keyboard in the form factor of the horizontal flip. To use it is wildly inconvenient. The benefit of the touch screen eliminates the need to fully open the phone.
F88 Wrist
That was another tempt to create extra smart phone, but this can be called just strange and huge. Especially, this small antenna system.
Nokia 7600
Nokia often experimented with design, in an attempt to create image models. More often it turned out. Nokia 7600 can not be called a failure, it causes rather mixed feelings. With this phone, the owners felt special, but when it came to using, the management was a real punishment.
Elfoid
Award in the nomination “the creepiest smartphone in the world” gets a model called Elfoid. This miracle from Japan reminds not a phone, but a voodoo doll. The developer wanted that the conversation with the interlocutor felt as if you were talking to a living person. As a result, it was not a phone, but a gadget from a horror film.
Compulab Exeda
From a technical point of view Compulab Exeda in 2010 was the dream of a boom: loading the operating system to the choice of Android / Windows Mobile, 520 MHz processor, 3.5-inch display, full keyboard and even Ethernet port! But, as in the case of the Virgin Lobster 700, the disgusting appearance spoiled the whole impression.
