You know how, after, say, two years, your smartphone seems to start getting a bit slow? You know how after, say, two years, your smarphone seems to be missing a few key features that all the new smartphones have now? How about battery life, does it seem too short? Not enough storage?

 

How about a phone that YOU customize when you buy it?

Or that you can replace just one part if it breaks or becomes out-dated?

 

 

Well, this guy wants to take care of that with PHONEBLOCKS!

 

BAMM!

Hows that for a modular phone?!

 

I recently upgraded my old iPhone 2G to an HTC One and am very happy with it. But THIS is, in my humble opinion, a GREAT idea!

 

Thought?

This is getting a bit out of hand; it feels like people are trolling at this point. Even if they aren't, it's really annoying. Maybe there should be a specific phonebloks stickied post until the craze dies down.

 

 

Edit: Everyone (not necessarily people on this forum, but the majority of people watching the video) should also realize we are very far from this tech (especially the part about the processing block being connected by 9 pins); the video was made by designers, not engineers.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

19 TIMES! Still cool though.

If someone has the word Phone Blok in the topic, they should not be allowed to post it. -.-

19 TIMES! Still cool though.

 

Will it still be cool the 20th time (we all know it's going to happen)?

I do think maybe we need to consider any new phone block post as spam....
