Circle Phone, Going Back To Simplicity
I will give you a prediction here and now. The upswing in high-tech technology integrated into every facet of our lives will soon (say 5+ years from now) experience a backlash started by none other than us; designers. The Circle Phone is an example of such a backlash.
Designer Jin Le believes there will be a yearning for simplicity. His circle phone eschews almost everything current electronic design goes for. You won’t find a touchscreen here. There’s only 3 buttons and a rotary style dial pad set in a very modern looking ring.

i totally agree with you. most of our devices have around 5,000 functions that we never use. okay, so i’m exaggerating. but our pace of life and other cultural forces i think will drive us to designs that help us feel uncluttered. i know i already feel this.
that’s true paul.electronic product itself should not showed so many cold and soulless technology.
but when I have to choose at least two or three things to bring with somewhere, I will pick up a multipurpose gadget….sometimes we need to have multi functional appliances instead of single functional things. If you once have a versatile unit, you will not need to buy single functional gadget…
