Alienware Android Cell Phone, First Pictures
- jdueck 19y agoNo offense to the designers, but I'd be embarrassed to carry around something like that. Hopefully they're listening to early feedback!
- brk 19y agoI agree, it's definitely not a "business phone", but my guess is that it might be a big hit with the high school LAN party crowd.
- jdueck 19y agoThe thing looks like a monster.. or, I know! An ANDROID! <G>
- thaumaturgy 19y agoThat's exactly what they're targeting here -- Alienware's existing (and not altogether small) market, full of gamers, geek chic, and those that might wear t-shirts advertising their hackitude. Designers look at it and wince, but I can definitely see that phone being successful in that crowd. EDIT: Argh. I should've paid closer attention to the text. As others pointed out, this thing's completely fictional. They're not targeting anything. Mea culpa.
- initself 19y agoThat is the ugliest thing I have ever seen.
- lsmith 19y agoIt's absurdly hideous. I would be embarrassed to carry that.
- mixmax 19y agoIf you're a pimple faced sweaty male teen these might be pretty cool. Otherwise not. Don't these people have any sense of style at all ?
- stillmotion 19y agoI think I could cut my hand on that one.
- isbeen 19y agoIt's the friggin Dethklok Dethphone, wonder if it'll have all of those minute eating menus.?.. brutal. http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Dethphone&defid=2817051 http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Dethphone&...
- TheTarquin 19y agoAt the risk of sounding the killjoy, those aren't exactly pictures, so much as an artist renditions notion of what an Alienware phone might look like. The pictures are all labeled "Designed by Jas Seehra for Dial-a-Phone - www.dialaphone.co.uk" I'm thinking the real phone's probably going to look nothing like this and will probably look more like a phone that people won't actually mind being seen in public with.
- paulgb 19y agoNot only is the picture totally a speculative mock-up (see the original image here: http://image.alienware.com/Images/product_detail_page_images/area-51_7500/gallery_creative_01_big.jpg http://image.alienware.com/Images/product_detail_page_images...), if you read carefully there is no indication that alienware is actually building a phone at all. Really this is just some guy making up stuff about a phone, in order to have the "exclusive" and get backlinks from people too clueless to realize he's making it all up.
- TheTarquin 19y agoOh awesome. Hey, why report news when you can just invent it, right? It's easier that way. And on re-reading it, you're totally right. They're saying "Dell MIGHT make a phone. And Dell owns Alienware. So here's the phone that Alienware's going to make."
- jraines 19y agoHideous. I want that monitor though.
