People First – New Nokia Phone Concept

Nokia is continuously thinking about new ways of creating and designing mobile phones and one of the latest concepts unveiled by the Finnish giant is a handset named "People First". Part of the so-called "Homegrown" research project, the new concept is devoted to "time, lists, and people" and its purpose is to make the user-handset interaction as easy as possible.

With "People First", Nokia allows and it even encourages users to create their own applications to be included in the phone's operating system. Apparently, we will be able to do so thanks to the fact that the handset comes with support for widgets and a user-friendly (hence easy) programming language. Therefore, almost all the users out there will have the chance to customize the phone's interface and add applications, making the device more suitable for their needs.

Nokia wants to include in the new phone only basic menus and applications, like the photo camera menu, clock, calculator and organizer, letting the rest of the applications and menus to be created by users, following the above-described method.

The "People First" handset features an unusually long display that should be among the best ones when it comes to quickly finding the info you need. Moreover, we can see an atypical navigation pad and also a good looking keypad. The overall aspect of the phone is very nice, hence we hope that Nokia will actually transform it into a real device sometime in the future.

The new people-centered phone is designed by the same team who worked on conceiving "Nokia Remade", Nokia's first concept phone to be 100% made out of recycled materials. This one was already publicly presented, although it's not fully functional (yet), so the "People First" handset could also be unveiled soon. We’ll be waiting.
