Its a shame that we will never see real life versions of many of the concept phone designs that come our way.
Granted, some of them are a bit bonkers or impractical, but others seem like they would be fun - a feature that is often missing from the featureless candybars that many manufacturers keep trying to flog us.
The Easy Tiles S60 Concept phone is definitely in the ‘impractical but fun’ category. Designer Tzu-Fu Wang has taken a little bit of Scrabble, a little bit of Lego, shoved them in a bag with the guts of a Symbian mobile and given them a good shake.
The result is this great looking handset that has replaced the outer shell of the phone with removable tiles. The tiles (which can be any colour or have designs printed on them) are completely interchangeable so if you get bored of one look you can snap them off, give them a shuffle and rebuild.
It certainly beats the old Xpress-on covers for versatility, although you have to wonder what would happen if you dropped it or even answered it a little vigorously.
I could see this appealing to manufacturers too - especially when they realise the money to be made in selling extra tiles.
