Sony Xperia Walkman Concept for Music Lovers

Sony is well known company for their crisp displays and audio quality. Since they have started manufacturing smartphones,thousands of Sony fans got the chance to put their best music and audio in to there pockets. Sony Ericsson Walkman series was the most popular among the music lovers. But after the change of name "Sony Ericsson" to "Sony" the Walkman series was also sent to the grave along with the "Ericsson" part. It's sad to see Sony didn't made a special phone with high end music capabilities for music lovers out there. Although most high end Sony handsets features a great music enhancements,there could be people who doesn't like to own a high end device. The Xperia Walkman Concept is just for the people who worship Music.

Music playback and the quality is a key factor to consider about when buying a new smartphone. Many people tend to leave this factor if planning to buy a Sony device. It's quite ok ,as Sony already crowned in the music industry. Other Companies like Samsung, Nokia and HTC also joined the competition recently but only Samsung went ahead by introducing "Galaxy Music", the small handset with great music and audio standards. 

So i have designed this Walkman handset to show how cool it would be if Sony managed to give us a "music only" phone.

The concept has the traditional Sony design with glossy plastic along with the new round side buttons which Sony introduced with Xperia E. No physical capacitive keys on the front,just the screen has occupied most of the front area with front facing camera,sensors and the Xperia branding at the bottom. Top of the device is sloped to front side just like in Xperia T and J and you can see a 3.5mm audio port and a speaker grill besides in the middle.

Symbian Donna powered Nokia N10 Concept

The word "Technology"plays a main role in the lifestyle of modern human. As the technology gets more sophisticated ,we must get used to it and take the maximum advantage instead of living with out dated technology. One such things are Smartphones, not like those days, now we can do almost anything with this device that fits in our pocket. When it comes to Mobile phone manufacturing,there is one name that we will never forget. NOKIA, the Finnish giant. Nokia ruled the smartphone world for ages but now seems to have a little downfall as there were new competitors emerged like Apple,Samsung and Sony.

Before talk about the Concept, i want to express my idea about the future of Nokia. We know that Nokia made an alliance with Microsoft in recent past and started manufacturing smartphones which runs Microsoft Windows Phone. But the problem came when rumors spread on the internet saying Microsoft is making a Surface smartphone to follow the Surface branding.when this happened Nokia already dumped the Meego project, which is a Linux based OS project. So, What will happen to Nokia if Microsoft really make surface smartphone? The answer to that question maybe hidden in this Concept i have imagined. Meet the Nokia N10, a powerful smartphone with Echo Friendly capabilities.

If you check the UI on the screen, you will remember the leaked video of Nokia Air. That video inspired me very much to design this concept. Just like i mentioned on above, What will Nokia do to stay in the race after leaving Meego? their main OS Symbian is not up to date to compete with other mobile OS's such as Android and iOS. But in the leaked Nokia Air promo video, The UI in the Nokia device drew Symbian users crazy. they suspected including my self, it could be the upcoming Symbian OS.
