Many mobile phone concepts will probably never make it past this state, but many of them truly manage to make some interesting ideas surface. There is a new such concept for a Nokia handset, although its looks and performances resemble nothing that the Finnish producer has offered until now in their devices.

The Nokia 7480 phone concept certainly looks smooth and stylish, but holds no credit for being seen as a potential release from this manufacturer. In fact, the device looks like nothing we have seen before and could be attributed only to a limited edition phone producer that would make the best of this highly expensive cellular.

The brand name is probably not a main problem with this concept design, but Nokia is receiving a great amount of credit with it, although they have done nothing here, in this specific situation, to deserve it. If it were not for the bulky edges and the back case, one might have considered this to be a Samsung handset, as this company has really showed a great amount of interest in slider phones until now.

The slider phone has a tall screen that makes no visible passage to the main navigation button. Unfortunately, the image does not reveal the handset's buttons that can be seen once it slides. It would have been interesting to see just how the designer has thought of matching them with the smooth, clear display.

One cute feature is that, when it slides, the concept phone shows its upper back side of the front case and, with it, a surprise. There's a small smiley face drawn on it next to writing "Smile". This makes the handset a highly adorable one that would surely prove to be a display of personality coming from its user and also a statement phone.
