that's verse presents most unusual
cellphones number one the Nokia 7600
this phone was released in 2003 it was
the company's second 3g handset it was
released way back before the smartphone
was released and the smaller the phone
the better the phone was shaped like a
teardrop and unfortunately the phone
didn't do very well people found that it
was too hard to text on the phone
because of the placement of the buttons
number two the yotaphone this phone was
released in December 2013 it was
original because there was a display on
the front of the phone and on the back
of the phone the display on the back of
the screen was always on unfortunately
you couldn't put a case on the phone or
else you wouldn't be able to use the
back screen this phone didn't really get
the attention that it deserved number
three the Motorola v70 this phone was
released in 2002 and it was very unique
it had a strange rotary design the
keypad was hidden beneath a cover to get
to the keypad you had to rotate the
cover 180 degrees even though the phone
looked cool and it was original it never
really took off the fact that you had to
turn the dial made the phone difficult
to use also it reduced the reliability
of the phone when the price of that
phone went down its popularity rose but
not by much number four the Samsung and
270 matrix this phone was released in
2003 and it was designed to tie in with
the Matrix Reloaded movie which was the
second in the Matrix trilogy it was
green on black which were the same
colors as the phones in the movies the
phone had a spring-loaded earpiece which
people thought was pretty cool also you
could say the name of the contact or
their phone number and the phone would
automatically dial unfortunately you
couldn't text with this phone or access
the web which is the main reason why the
phone didn't get the attention that it
could have number 5 Siemens celebre the
Siemens celebre wasn't just one phone it
was actually a series of phones each of
the phones in the series had a ver
odd shape the creator's hoped that
people would see those phones as being
fashionable they didn't the entire
series was released in 2003 and after
extensive advertising they weren't
flying off the shelves after they
released the eighth strange looking
phone of the series the project was
scrapped and these phones were never
seen again number six the Samsung serene
this phone was released in 2005 and it
was designed to be a fashion conscious
phone the phone itself looked like a
jewelry box and it had a circular keypad
the phone was designed by Bang & Olufsen
but fortunately there were design flaws
that kept the phone from being popular
the first issue was the circular keypad
it made texting difficult the second
problem was the camera it was mounted on
the side of the phone making it hard to
line up the shot properly number seven
the Samsung X 830 this phone was
released in 2006 when big phones weren't
considered better
it had a switchable design with the
number pad sliding in under the display
screen because of the phone's skinny
design the keypad had a two row design
rather than the three row design many
people who had texting down to a science
with a three row design didn't like this
phone because it was difficult to
relearn how to text number eight
the Nokia 3250 this was a very unique
phone unlike most phones in 2006 that
split vertically this one split
horizontally you could rotate the bottom
to be in either phone mode or music mode
you could also switch the camera from
the front to the back by swiveling the
bottom of the phone many people didn't
like the fact that they had to
constantly turn the bottom of the phone
so it never really took off
number nine Toshiba g450 this phone was
released in 2011 and it had a strange
three disc design the discs on the top
was the display the two discs on the
bottom were the keypads the middle disc
held numbers 1 through 6 the disc on the
bottom held numbers 7 8 9 0 the star
button and the pound button regardless
of the strange remote control design it
was a functional phone it
to be used as a phone an mp3 player a
USB device and an hsdpa modem number 10
the light phone and the iPhone gun the
light phone is the size of a credit card
and is designed to be your second mobile
phone for use only in an emergency since
the phone is not tethered to your
existing phone you would need to
activate a SIM card it cost about five
dollars a month to use this phone in the
United States the iPhone gun is a
typical phone but when it's folded up it
resembles a gun this design and never
really took off
Apple realized that it might be very
hard to market and bonus phone for you
the Samsung Galaxy Beam this is one of
the most unusual cell phones ever made
the phone had a small projector inside
which allowed you to project everything
on your screen onto the wall
unfortunately the limited battery life
on the phone and the low resolution from
the projector made this phone less
popular than Samsung it hoped subscribe
