Floater Phone, is a nice to see phone concept featuring a flat surface with oval-back design. This phone is not a true cell phone because the designer designed it to be on the desk. Floater, if you pull some string to the health problem, is a annoying sickness/dotted strings that will float around our eyes whenever we roll our eyes around. However, floater phone concept has no such annoying thing. It features a nice to see display panel, oval shaped, with curve bottom. There seems to be two type of Floater phone. One with qwerty keyboard and the other one has a sliding part to reveal the keyboard. Nice design.

Here is an interesting concept phone for LG. It’s dubbed as HiFi Cell Phone, a cellphone that could transform into a Hi-Fi headphone after unfolding the both end.

This concept phone is also a one of the winner of LG’s Design the Future competition. In the description comes with the author of this Hi-Fi Cell Phone Concept said that the device would fit in our pocket in to folded position and traveler friend. When unfolded, user will get a pair of Hi-Fi Stereo headphones.

The only problem that you can find from the concept picture above is the non-microphone design. How should one make a call if there is no mic included. Perhaps the designer has forgotten to draw them, or there is a possibility that the future cell phone will have a seamlessly integrated mic so there is no need to draw one.

Overall, it’s just a concept. Perhaps it’s looks futuristic and cool, I guess LG will have a hard time producing such a concept with the current technology.
