We’ve talked really much about cellphones and I’ve said it many times that today’s phones look much alike and so are their functions. And I do believe many of you have the same feeling that cellphones today do need some more innovation and some real fresh air. So here it comes, the latest news from PCMag: Will mechanical cellphone be the phone of the future?
We have seen precious engineering and artful designs in exclusive timepieces with a bit of inspirational flavor around them, albeit the inspiration has commonly come from the finest automobiles. Those exquisite Swiss watches have been considered as a symbol of identity and status for a really long time, and we do admire the beauty! However, in the inspirational category it’s a rare prospect to see cellphones taking their inspiration from high-end watches, but it should come with no surprise to see these two industries crossing over at increasing frequency in the very near future.
Here’s a starter from a French company called Celsius X-VI-II which will unveil the Papillon, a $300,000 mobile phone that cites high-end Swiss watches as an inspiration for this ultra-luxury, a mechanical mobile phone. Armed with the most advanced micro-mechanics of any gadget have ever created, the phone also intended to operate mechanically through human energy. This handmade art masterpiece watch with more than 600 mechanical components takes its design inspiration from the butterfly. Priced at $300,000, the phone will be limited to just 50 units in two versions. To know more about the creation and to see the X-rayed photo come to life, Celsius X VI II plans to unveil the phone at the Basel World watch fair starting on March 18th. So, stay tuned!
We always love mechanical watches for their elegance and accurate, they just look gorgeous! And I believe this distinctive mechanical phone will look really gorgeous and most possibly starts a new era for cellphone. Well, let’s just sharpen our eyes!
