Bob Freking came up with a humorous concept phone since it’s the weekend and he defines it as the phone of Chuck Norris and the hammer of Thor: Nokia Lumia 3310. A tribute to the classic Nokia 3310, a phone that everyone I’ve ever known in my life used at least once, this device keeps a slight resemblance with the original, but adds Windows Phone 8 on top of it.
The front lower side is what gives away the identity of the phone (especially the Home button) and if it gets a virtual numeric pad to mimic the original it’s even more fun. For the sake of crazy jokes, Bob Freking imagines the Nokia Lumia 3310 with a “9,3024,823,904 Petapixel PureView Camera” and a 7 billion GHz 56 core processor, an irony regarding the mindless evolution of today’s high end smartphones. Also on board there’s a “super duper ultra mega ultimate HD screen”, that fits the current bragging of Nokia with the Lumia 920 screen they keep praising.
This model is also meteor proof, being able to survive mass extinction and it’s got an app that cures cancer and AIDS… Well, that’s the sort of joke that Ricky Gervais would do, if you ask me. Honestly speaking, with so many fans out there, if they resurrect the Nokia 3310 and give it WHATEVER specs, the nostalgics will buy it!

Rahul Sharma has imagined a bunch of interesting concept phones before and now he’s back with the Google Nexus 2013, pictured below. We’re dealing with a phone that runs Android Key Lime Pie on top of an AMD CPU. The design is curved and very thin and I actually like this form factor a lot. The handset gets a dual 2 megapixel camera at the front for 3D calls and many more interesting features detailed below.
It also comes with Airplay, the ability to stream video on the screen from any device nearby, a Rfid sensor, that can “bring new possibilities to the phone” according to the designer and a Hibernate mod, for saving battery and keeping the current state of the device intact. It even has a chemical sensor, a cool feature that allows it to sense human emotions and facial signals, plus detection radiation levels, all of that through a nano mesh chip at the back.
Heat charging is available via the thermoelectric patch using nanotechnology and it allows it to charge the handset through body heat when held in hand or when exercising. Other features include a pressure sensor, an altimeter, magnetic sensor and 6 point multitouch, useful for games and graphics. There’s an illuminating back Nexus logo for notifications and if you want hardware details, know that the Google Nexus 2013 has a quad core AMD Piledriver 1.7 GHz processor, a Nvidia Tegra 4 GPU, a 4.9 inch 1600 x 840 p display and 2 GB of DDR3 RAM. Android 4.2 Key Lime Pie is the OS and at the back there’s a 21 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss Varo Tessar technology and physical zoom.
I can’t think of any feature lacking from this phone… Even the capacitive buttons at the bottom are extremely cool and so is the Tron-like user interface.
