Another day, another take on the Samsung Galaxy S4 design, this time from Nikolai Prettner. He also envisions the new TouchWiz, version 6.0, that he describes in the image below. TouchWiz 6.0 brings a big revamp of the whole concept, in order to truly compete with other smartphones and launchers on Android devices.
As far as the Samsung Galaxy S4 goes, it features a 12 megapixel main camera, a 4.5 megapixel front facing HD camera, a 1.9 GHz quad core processor and a 1080p Super AMOLED Plus flexible display, with a 5.1 inch diagonal. Other specs include an SD card slot, LTE, HSPA+, light sensor, wireless charging and 2650 mAh battery. The device comes in 16 GB, 32 GB and 64 GB versions. This handset runs Android Key Lime Pie 5.0 with TouchWiz 6.0, S Gestures, S Voice, S Note and S Music.
The design involves an aluminum frame, plastic back, flexible plastic screen and everything weighs 102 grams, so 10 grams less than the iPhone 5, but with a much bigger size. The thickness is also 7.5 mm, 0.1 mm less than the iPhone 5. TouchWiz 6.0 brings an improved S Voice, while the screen has S Note capabilities and S Gestures allows you to create custom gestures and trigger various features. The concept sounds very realistic to me. Does it sound the same to you?

Wooseok Suh designed a very interesting concept smartphone called Another World, that somehow reminds us of Tron. The idea is to have a very clean interface and design, that blend together seamlessly. There seems to be a center ring on the phone, displaying its features, that are shown on the surface of the device with projections or similar mechanisms.
Another World Phone is a very thin device, with a slightly curved facade and a pretty long body. That central ring of the phone may remind one of the iPod’s center ring and I can’t really figure out if the entire front of the device is a display, or only the upper part. Anyway, the idea is very original and if the UI truly involves laser projections on the surface of the device, it’s an even more original phone, but one that’s not very comfortable.
I imagine that the ring on the front has a corresponding circular area at the back, which hosts the camera sensor. For some reason I’d imagine HTC or ASUS designing such a device and selling it as a fashion phone or haute couture item made of carbon. Ready for the Tron Phone?
