Nokia and the University of Cambridge exposed a potential phone of the future, called Morph . As part of a new design exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art in New York city,. Why “Morph”? The gadget’s flexible materials would allow you to twist it into different shapes, you could even wear it as a bracelet.

It also boasts a self-cleaning function on the surface that could extend the life of the phone. The concept device is nanotech-inspired, and would serve as a normal phone or mini-computer, complete with keyboard and touchpad. Nokia says some of the technology in Morph could start making its way into real mobile devices within seven years. That sounds like a long time to wait for phones that doubles as an accessory.

Samsung SGH-i450

Saturday, March 29th, 2008


If Compared with the other of Samsung’s U.S. models, the SGH-i450 breaks the company’s slim and silver design. Yes, it’s a slider phone, but it’s somewhat hefty (3.98 inches by 2.05 inches by 0.71 inch; 3.69 ounces) and it sports an eye-catching blue and white color scheme. It’s certainly a nice change and it befits the phone’s multimedia prowess. As we said earlier, it has a dual-slider design that’s similar to the Nokia N95. If you slide the front face up, you’ll expose the numeric keypad. If you slide it down, you’ll see the music touch control.

The SGH-i450 has a bright, vibrant display that supports 262,000 colors and measures 2.4 inches (240×320 pixels). It shows everything well, from text to graphics to photos, and it offers an intuitive Symbian-powered (Series 60) menu interface. You can adjust the brightness, the backlighting time, and the font size.

The SGH-i450 offers two 2-megapixel cameras. The main shooter faces the rear of the phone. It takes pictures in five resolutions, from 1,600×1,200 down to 320×240. Features include a flash, light metering, a digital zoom, a self-timer, a sequence mode, three white balance settings, a brightness control, and four color tones.

Express Your Music With Nokia 5300

Tuesday, March 25th, 2008


From the face, maybe you are not realizing that the Nokia 5300 XpressMusic Phone is a cell phone at all. With its boxy black-and-white case, well-known music controls, and large screen, you could easily mistake it for a digital audio player. And you wouldn’t be wrong: The 5300 is, in fact, almost equal parts music player and cell phone, and the music features are some of the best that we’ve seen on a phone.

this slider-style phone looks squared-off and slightly bulky when you closed, but its gorgeous 2-inch display takes center stage. The music controls sit in the black rim around the display (a red-and white-version also is available); to the left are keys for scrolling through your music collection, as well as keys for playing and pausing tracks. Volume keys sit on the right side of the handset. Since the keys are rubbery, they’re simple to locate by touch, and easy to push.

Basic controls below the screen make navigating the phone’s many features a breeze. Sliding the device open reveals the one disappointing aspect of its controls: a phone keypad that feels overly plasticky. Still, the keys are nicely raised, so dialing is easy.

But the music features really make the phone shine. The music player, which is easily accessible through the unit’s home page or via the external music controls, is very user-friendly. You can quickly scroll through your music library, which is organized by artists, albums, genres, composers, or playlists. The phone ships with Nokia’s Music Manager software for organizing your library on your PC and a USB cable for transferring tunes to the phone, which includes a 1GB microSD card for storing them. While the desktop software isn’t as intuitive as the phone’s music player, it is still relatively easy to use. It scans your PC for audio files and lets you transfer any of them to your phone with one click. You can also use the Music Manager app to delete songs from the phone and to create playlists, which you can’t do on the phone itself. T-Mobile does not offer its own music service with over-the-air downloads, so you’ll have to obtain your music collection elsewhere.

The 5300 also includes a 1.3-megapixel camera that takes serviceable to very good snapshots. Still-life photos came out great, but like many camera phones, this model suffers from a significant shutter delay, so capturing moving subjects is hard. The phone also takes video clips, but they look pixelated and slightly grainy (typical for a camera phone).
