Mobile Phones...styling With Changing Times

When the telephone was first invented, someone very famously said �It is a nice invention, I wonder who'll use it�. Years later, when mobile phones first started appearing, no one dared to make such a statement; and rightly so. The immense potential o

f the mobile phones was sensed by all from the word Go and their importance today is accepted by all.

Along with the changing face of mobile technology that has seen a sea change especially during the last decade, mobile phone design to have done well to cope up with the ever changing wants and desires of mobile users. Not so long ago, a low resolution camera in a phone means a brick-sized phone that truly makes its weight felt. Compared to them, the present corp multi megapixel camera phones are now lighter and much more compact than the 'basic' mobile phones from yesteryears.

At the time of introduction, mobile phone essentially were mono-blocks. Candy-bars, as they are called are very much present today but with slimmer dimensions and more experimentation with texture, contours and other design elements are visible. The popularity of this mobile phone design lies in its simplicity. But s mobile phone became more and more popular, designers didn't sh

y away from radical designing with the candy-bars as well. Quite a few Nokia handsets, especially those from its L'Amour collection has been instrumental with changing its shapes and dimensions.

First major noticeable change from mono-blocks is the addition of the keypad cover which eventually gave rise to flip phones. This served two purpose � style and protecting the display and the keypad from getting spoiled too soon. As the demand for 'stylish' mobile phones increased, designers came up with 'sliders' � the models that has a sliding upper half and a fixed lower half generally holding the keypad.

Presently, we have a host of mobile phones that boast of rotating blocks, hidden QWERTY keypads and many such fascinating designs while the recent advent of 'bling' phones have lead to more creative designing of mobile phones with precious stones and other design elements.
