NTT DoCoMo showed off the prototype smartphone at Wireless Japan, which has a transparent display, and touch functionality on the front and back of the phone, similar to a PlayStation Vita."
This is a very sleek looking unit., Fujitsu Computer Products of America, the leader in imaging solutions, today announced the Fujitsu fi-8000 series of enterprise scanners.
Bendable smartphones could be a reality in five years, Lenovo's head of mobile told CNBC.
Very easy to steal too from the looks of it.
More pointless, overpriced attachments to compensate for designer shortsightedness could be a reality in 5 years.
Some people mocked the original iPhone when it launched, and the Samsung Galaxy Note provoked much mirth for being too big, but both defied their critics with strong sales and spawned sequels that are still going strong. The phones we’re looking at here had a different fate. They may have pointed the way for the future of smartphones, but they failed to capitalize on it.
Lumia 1020 was definitely the biggest shocker of all. I still remember how I thought it would do great in the markets when it was first announced.
This seems like a bit useless because you already can't see anything on your smartphone during a sunny day, this will be a nightmare
WoW japan again with something new !! definitely will work i think !!
No. Why would I want people being able to see what's on my phone from the other side? People already buy screen filters to block what's on their one and only screen...we don't need a double sided phone now lol.
I think it could be popular simply because it is transparent. It'll be a fashionable phone, and no doubt some people will like to show off with it. Can't think of many practical uses...taking pictures might be slightly cooler? (or wierder?)
