CES 2012: This Sony VAIO computer is from the future

VAIO concept

We’ve seen at least one of Sony’s experimental products at CES 2012 this week. Today, we’ve stumbled upon a concept of what VAIO PCs could look like in the future. Sony simply calls this prototype “Slate.” It has a super thin, illuminated keyboard and a monitor that isn’t connected to anything. It honestly looks like a more »

If you happen to be looking for a nice way to get truly candid images of your friends, family or others — you may want to check out the latest concept product from Yanko Design, the Sling Shot Camera.

How’s this for a concept phone?

We’ve been seeing some fantastic phones within the past couple years. As powerful as these devices are getting, there are few that have a truly unique and daring hardware design. In my opinion, the Kyocera Echo is one of the most creative smartphone designs to debut in recent memory. The difference between that phone and the Triple Flip (pictured) is reality. The Triple Flip is a concept Windows Phone 7 smartphone. It’s like the swiss army knife of the smartphone world.

Modern day mixtape merges RFID, Spotify and magnets

Here’s a neat concept that we’re hoping finds it way to production: a standalone player that comes with 8 RFID tags that can be linked to music. The idea is the little tags could be playlists and when affixed to the stand alone player would bring up that playlist. It’s a simple enough idea that more »

Russia developing its own dual-screened 4G smartphone for next year

You don’t hear of many phone manufacturers coming from Russia. Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a phone from any Russian-based company. But that doesn’t mean they aren’t capable of making such a device. In a recent video, Russian President Dmitri Medvedev and state technology official Sergei Chemezov have more »

Lenovo U1 ditching Skylight for Android

At CES this year, we covered the Lenovo U1 Hybrid computer. It made quite a splash at CES because of its ability to transform from a Windows 7 laptop to a tablet running Lenovo’s own Skylight OS. But it has been a while since we have heard any news about this odd device, but now more »

Bills USB flash drive protects your data with a combination lock

Designer Yun Hwan Sung came up with a concept USB flash drive called the “Bills USB” (Bills as in Bill Gates?). Ditching the whole idea of encryption, Yun opted for a combination a lock instead. The USB connector remains hidden and retracted until you get the right combination to unlock it. That is a pretty more »

What could be a first look at a Google tablet

The iPad may be the hot topic at the moment, but I am sure that the iPad is far from the last tablet that we are going to be seeing this year. We already know that Google is planning to do something with Chrome OS and now we are being given what could be described more »

Projection-screen is the new touchscreen. Or at least Dell seems to think so

Everyone wants a touchscreen right now. You’ve got your iTouch’s, phones, monitors, laptops, eReaders, tablets, etc… But Dell knows the future. And the future is projection. Ok not really… Albeit being a cool idea, it’s also a unnecessary one; but Dell, with its Froot Concept, wants to show you anyway. The Froot sports two projectors, more »
