The technology market seems to be obsessed with making new products smaller, more compact and thinner than ever, but this Motorola smartphone concept offers a different aesthetic.
Featuring a metal bezel that encapsulates the entirety of the edge of the device, the smartphone looks rugged enough to survive drops and not require a case like other devices.
The intuitive design aesthetic makes the Motorola smartphone concept a visually striking piece of equipment that's prepared for continued usage day after day.
The smartphone is the design work of Steve SH Kim and offers enhanced character to be infused into the device without focusing on razor-thin edges. The conceptual phone looks to improve on existing smartphones by going somewhat against the grain of traditional device design.
