i like and admire samsung as a whole.. i judge designs based on various aspects such as functionality and durability, not only aesthetics.

So you admire samsuck wich is cheap dirty thief and copycat. Shame on you. Many asian OEM:s have done nothing but copycats recently. They are just lazy followers.
Thats what you admire. Phyi.

In my opinion
Nokia>Motorola>Samsung/Sony>HTC/LG>Apple
If its on pure design basis my order would be
Nokia>Motorola>HTC/Sony>LG/Samsung>Apple
Top designs (my opinion):-
Nokia N9>Motorola Razr (XT 910)>LG Crystal/LG BL 20/Sony Ericsson Aino>The above design>HTC Desire

Looks like a larger Asha, and I like that the screen is almost literally edge-to-edge, unlike the /almost/ "edge-to-edge" of the Droid RAZR M

I like the new design of this Nokia phone, but the drawings in the diagram looks a lot thinner than the one in the video. The only other problem i have with Nokia is, that it takes too long to bring their product to market, after the announcements. :/ Watchout, Apple might get mad over the rounded corners of the phone. :(

What about that drawing is unique, new or worthy of a patent?

KIRFs and apple started crazy patent stuff so now everyone has to patent darn near everything they come up with

Not bad design, but I really want to see FX800 concept to come into reality. These renders kinda look like a big Asha 311.

Yeah...i thought so too...the beezel below is too thick!! However, the second one in the video looks much better!

design is good for nokia but design is not everything most important thing is OS and nokia has been wrong for 2 years in my opinion
23. redmd posted on 22 Oct 2012, 07:23 0 0
So true. that's why I've moved on with android. N7100.

HTC 8x itself is Sony xperia P ripoff.
Besides the videos are almost 20 months old.
They may have this design in lab but first they want to put the n9 design for use this year.

Design is excellent but unfortunately it's outdated compared to new Lumia design language that was introduced with N9. This design belongs to age of five years ago or so, so I doubt they will use it in the future. Nokia is very strict and design-conscious, so if I know that a good designer would never use such a outdated design, they certianly know it too.
Nevertheless, it could still be used for lower-end models, like Lumia 610 did, or even for Asha series.

Apple much? Is there some sort of new technology accompanying the design? or is it just a patent of an elongated lumia 610?

cool design but the screen is looks like 3.5 incher. TodaY IF A SMART PHONE DOES NOT HAVE AT LEAST 4 INCEHES IT WONT SELL WEEL. people today watch video on the internet so a big screen is needed

You can never go wrong with Nokia... as far as design. And now matched with Windows Phone, it is the whole package.
To me Nokia is head and heels over the next closest thing, so not really a ranking competition.
