This unique four way slider concept phone from fujitsu puts the Nokia dual slider N95 to shame.

ESATO NEWS

T3 magazine has an exclusive hands on report on the amazing fujitsu concept which i've posted about in the past.Here is a handset which you would be forgiven for thinking if it was a phone, Games machine, MP3 player, or Camcorder? Depends which way you flick it and its beautiful to boot.

The beauty of this sexy device is that it can slide up,down,left and right to reveal a different set of keys each time.There’s even a nifty touch-sensitive slider to adjust volume when you’re playing back MP3s or video, and a set of “normal" navigation keys up front for making calls.

Fujitsu says the design will make an appearance in real phones next year,here's hopeing.Check out the VIDEO

Clever design - a first for a 4-way slider and OLED screen. I like the concept.

Cant see it putting N95 to shame by any means.

It certainly is flashy, but texting, as said, would be near impossible with a design like that. First they're all up one side, and secondly are being obstructed by the upper slide panel.

I'll take the N95.

You have to remember its just a concept,an actual working phone will have quite a few alterations, i assume one of those would be to make it simpler to text!

They may incoporate a slide out full QWERTY keyboard as in the case with its sister design below!

Really nice and clever. I just don't think that mechanism is going to last. This will have more recalls based on the mechanism.
It's not what you do or even how you do it but in what state of mind you do it: Dups! 2009
