Gizmodo’s favorite speculative industrial designer Martin
Hajek is at it again. This time, he’s created something
that could almost be true: an Apple flipphone for the
Japanese market.
Before doing these beautiful concept designs, Hajek
asked himself what would happen if “Apple decided to
do an iPhone for the Japanese market.” Speaking to
Gizmodo via email, he mused:
Over in Japan people are still crazy for these so-called
‘garakei’ phones; the huge flipphones which have been
around for ages. Despite the iPhone’s huge popularity in
Japan the Japanese just can’t get enough of these
mobile monstrosities. Presenting the garakeiPhone!
Probably too difficult to engineer but still - a fun project
to do ... and hopefully see. :-)
I want to live in the alternate future where this happens.
