So someone redesigned the iphone with a big screen and impossible (or at least incredibly impractical) dimensions and what looks like a customized version of MIUI? Looks like he wants the iphone but, like, could have totally done a better job of it himself.

On a side note, the quote is misattributed. Leonardo da Vinci beat Jobs to it by a few hundred years.

That's one ugly looking device from the front/top/side angled view. Looks like the yucky plastic off any computer of the 80's/90's (Atari ST/Amiga/SNES).

Not good when a phone looks better from the back than the front :)

looks like my gameboy pocket.. all blocky and square and such.

[remixedcat]

well this is talked about lots of reddit and this hit the front page when I posted it...I kinda like the UI but the phone itself did look too blocky.

[Admiral Gilgamesh]

The menu reminds me of GridOS. Granted, a lot to the elements do look similar to other devices.

Of course, just a concept, but I appreciate the minimalism; very striking screen.

The Samsung galaxy s2 has the largest dimensions id buy for a phone. Any bigger surely and its a tablet ?

[cacoe]

Take advantage of the medium... by totally wasting the space on the screen with a massive digital clock, then adding an analogue clock below it? That's certainly a great use of the form factor. Plus, the side of the phone is fugly.

Too big, someone with small hand will barely able to hold it. And people will laugh at you if you hold up something bigger than your head to talk.

Make it a little bigger and it will be a great tablet though, better looking than Kindle.

Agreed. And what weird dimensions...

If I could be given one to keep, I think I'd actually love that phone. Shame it's just a concept and I wouldn't be given one out of the blue. :p Concept or not I actually find it quite an interesting design. It is a bit on the large side but it seems to be a trend in phones now.

[HawkMan]

Hard edges that hurts to old, bezel so small you can't hold the phone without touching the edge of the screen.

Yeah, brilliant....

[Azusa]

Going to say this now WANT!!!!! And if you add in a second slide out screen made from those new flexible displays then i'd gladly pay ?1K for it.

With a screen size of 5.1 inch, should come with a FREE backpack to carry it around in.

[Xerax]

The UI is just a mixture of Metro and Android.

[Bryan R.]

This really isn't all that conceptual... Some guy just has too much time on his hands and too big an ego.

[iron2000]

I don't like the left and right edges.

Either make the whole edge curved or blocky.

Curved then blocky spoils the simplicity to me.

[blachole]

I don't like this as all. The design overall is just impractical. I also wouldn't compare it to an iPhone, more like a droid razr or something like that.

I think it looks cheap. And honestly, there just isn't anything practical about a 5,1" screen anymore.
