well I can think of worse, but ok...Gotta be the stupidest idea I've ever seen.
the concept is what's cool.
whether or not the particular model in question becomes reality isn't as important as the idea.
I would much rather treat my phones like my computers which I buy much less often because individual components can simply be upgraded to keep with the times.
great idea. the current cell phone industry is shite with the constant replacements.
but it's not the exact same thing.This is the exact same thing here. The reason that cell phones are SO SMALL and SO POWERFUL is because each time they are custom making it so that things will fit in the best way possible, exploiting every bit of space and power that they can, stressing the creative imaginations of their engineers (you see only a rectangle, but it's creative as hell to fit that in there).
well I can think of worse, but ok...
you're just confusing realism with pessimism :tup:
but it's not the exact same thing.
laptops are of a certain scale and dimension by nature. the more you shrink a laptop, the less laptop it becomes. eventually you've got just another smart phone.
your logic doesn't follow.
you can only make traditional cell phones so small. while phones will continue to become exponentially more powerful, they won't continue to become exponentially smaller lest they cease being phones and start being subcutaneous implants connected to our auditory and visual nerves (and wouldn't that be something).
as the technology becomes more powerful the size becomes irrelevant.
there's no reason why the Phoneblok concept cannot be a commercially viable competitor to the current cell phone industry model. there comes a point when you don't have to "custom" fit everything just to "maximize" capability. standard components which could be swapped out can be just as capable and powerful as those features found in the contemporary smart phone. the technology today is very fluid.
satin boxers made of lego? How does that work? Or do your satin boxers function as a cell phone? WOW THAT'S NEAT MAN.my satin boxers.
What eats power is often the OS. Macbook Pro 13'' retina is close to what you're asking for (except for the weight)I would pay like a mofo for a 1lb 13" laptop with a wqhd monitor and 10 hour battery life, but it's not not happening, and won't for a good deal more time (and even then it will mean significant compromises).
