在过去几周里,你会看到不少智能手机违反了创新和进步的文化规范。Punkt MP02剥夺了手机令人上瘾的摄像头、屏幕和互联网连接,迫使人们使用语音交流,而不是通过应用程序互相发送通知和消息。Palm手机将你的功能手机缩小到一个看起来很方便的尺寸,这与目前市面上大量的平板手机形成了鲜明对比。作为日本优秀设计奖(Japanese Good Design Award)的得主,同时也被誉为世界上最薄的手机,KY-O1L的大小和信用卡差不多,厚度只有几毫米。为白领工人仍然依靠设计名片,KY-O1L符合正确的持卡人,让你有一个电话和你的卡片,你可以答:随身携带,和b .使用立即打电话,保存联系人,并访问web工作原因。这款手机配备了单色电子墨水触摸屏和380毫安的电池,足以为手机供电。这款手机采用LTE技术,也可以用来浏览互联网,虽然没有应用商店(或Android兼容性),但它确实配备了一个网络浏览器,足以访问网络上的信息。一开始,运行黑白浏览器可能会让人感到有些不安,但它绝对是有益的,因为它让你的手机变得纯粹实用。这是一款完美的手机,适合那些相信“忙碌”的人,既能控制科技,又能与外界交流,最重要的是,用不使用应用程序或摄像头持续监视自己的技术来保护自己的隐私。当你这么说的时候,听起来并没有那么糟糕,不是吗?京瓷KY-O1L是2019年iF设计奖的得主。设计师:京瓷
Over the past few weeks, you’ll have seen quite a few smartphones that went against the cultural norm of innovation and progress. The Punkt MP02 stripped the phone of its addictive camera, screen, and internet connectivity, forcing people to communicate using voice, rather than send each other notifications and messages on apps. The Palm Phone shrunk your feature phone to a size that seemed handy, going against the wave of massive phablet-sized phones with 97% of the front just dominated by pixels.Kyocera’s KY-O1L is a bit of both (although the name could be a little catchier). A recipient of the Japanese Good Design Award, and also touted as the world’s thinnest phone, the KY-O1L is literally the size of a credit card, and just a couple of millimeters thinner. Designed for the white-collar workers who still rely on business cards, the KY-O1L fits right into cardholders, allowing you to have a phone along with your cards that you can A. carry around with you, and B. Use to instantly make calls, save contacts, and access the web for work-related reasons.The phone comes with a monochrome e-ink touchscreen, and a 380mAh battery that’s more than enough to power the phone. Built with LTE, the phone can be used to browse the internet too, and although there isn’t an app store (or Android compatibility), the phone does come with a web browser that’s more than sufficient to access information on the web. Running a browser in black and white can be a slightly unnerving experience at first, but it’s definitely rewarding in the sense that it allows you to be purely utilitarian with your phone. A perfect phone for the kind of person who believes in hustling, keeping technology in check while being able to communicate with the world, and most importantly, safeguarding their privacy with technology that doesn’t use apps or cameras to spy incessantly on them. It doesn’t sound that bad when you say it that way, does it?The Kyocera KY-O1L is a winner of the iF Design Award for the year 2019.Designer: Kyocera
