We have been writing about quite a few concept gadgets and concept phones. Sony PSP Concept Phone, Oakley Stealth Watch, Nokia Pulse Projector, and many more, to name a few.

With the rapid evolution of technology and its manifold existent forms, we must be ready to accept it in unpredictable shapes and forms. Anything that is imaginable is possible, a belief which is the most influential driving force behind this.

Here is a list of the Top 5 Concept Phones that are likely to hit reality.

1. Window Phone– A Concept Phone For Weather Curious People

We are talking about the Window Phone. A concept phone which changes its display according to the weather conditions. The most interesting thing about the phone is its translucent appearance.

Reportedly, the Window Phone changes its display to reflect climatic conditions, for instance, it displays droplets on the screen for a rainy day, snowy flakes for a snowy day and a crystal clear display for a bright sunny day.

What's Hot : It's raining here!

The Window phone is your window to weather forecast and makes accurate predictions (we don’t know what the science behind this assertion is!). When you blow your breath, it moves into the handwriting mode. What a fun!

We’ll post our hands-on review of the Window Phone, if it hits reality. Cannot assume how far that reality is, atleast for the weird concept the design is atomized on.

2. Nokia Morph Concept

Nokia Research Center and Cambridge NanoScience Center have been working on the Nokia Morph Phone (concept) for quite a long time. The phone is completely built and based on nanotechnology.

Nokia Morph : Phone. Watch. Media Player

“Morph” means to change form, literally. And the Nokia Morph Concept has got it all. It can transform from a flat shaped portable TV like gadget into a cool looking phone. Furthermore, it is flexible enough to be worn as a wrist watch. All thanks to the Nano Technology that is used for the design.

It may include a camera, will have a full touch panel and will be supposedly dust proof.Nokia already makes great phones and this one is a great concept phone. Wish that it hits reality until we are still young.

In the meantime, we’ll wait to see if Nokia has any updates for the same. Presumptively, it isn’t coming very soon, but you can still check out the video for the testimonial.

3. Bracelet Phone

Designer Tao Ma (remember Yanko.com) has come up with a new concept phone. It’s the Bracelet Phone . Yes, you read it right, the design suggests that a phone is integrated into a stylish bracelet which has diamond shaped buttons to make and receive calls. Ah yes, the bracelet phone vibrates to alert you of an incoming call.

The Bracelet Phone also doubles as a mp3 player to entertain you. Absolutely not weird. One piece that could be used as an mp3 player, a phone and a funky bracelet. Interestingly, the concept phone would be targeted at women if it were to hit reality, in the not so distant future.

The designer also has a sequel to the original Bracelet Phone concept, the Bracelet Phone II (pictured below). The new baby has a Bluetooth headset to let you listen to music handsfree in style.

4. The iPhone Pro Concept Phone Has A Physical QWERTY Keypad

If you are an iPhone lover, then you will love this concept phone to the core. One of the most common regrets you may have must be the absence of a physical keyboard on the iPhone. We have no idea if Apple has any plans to introduce one in the future, but if Apple does not, somebody else will and the concept design is already making waves.

The iPhone Concept Pro : Overpowering Apple ?

The iPhone Concept Phone looks more or less similar to the Apple iPhone but it has a landscape QWERTY physical slide-out keyboard. The only visible difference in the physical form factor.

The technical specs are also revved up. With 64GB of internal memory, iPhone OS X2.0. 2 MP camera and connectivity options like 3G and GPS, this iPhone Concept Phone will take the cell phone market by a storm.

Racing more, it will have real push e-mail which will knock down Blackberry sales, we suppose, if it were to hit reality. And, we don’t see any great obstacles on the way except the price factor.

5. The Universal Phone Concept

Universal Phone, a concept phone that is designed to be useful to the visually impaired, blind, as well as the blessed ones like us equally even the blind.

If Louis Braille desgined the Braille System in 1821 for the blind to read and write, he would have never had even the slightest idea about the extent to which his one noble idea can be harnessed.

All the mobile phones have a dot on the number 5 key, and that’s for the poor blind people, However, we have a concept phone that is one step ahead.

Designer Seunghan Song has come with a concept phone design that not only lets the blind make calls by sensing the keys but all allows them to read text messages.

The Universal Phone gives the illusion to the user as a touch screen phone while it actually uses a lot of micro pins which come up to from Braille platform.

This is a phone for blind people, but users without any impairments can take advantage of its features as well. Its keypad features thousands of micro pins, that get lowered or raised in different modes, transforming into a Braille platform that can be “read” by people with sight impairments.

Afterall, everything good is for the sake of Humanity!

Do these concept phones sound interesting to you, just as they thrill me? Feel free to pen down your opinions under comments. Hang on, we will keep you updated about more upcoming concept phones.
