Lenovo to compete with iPhone?
December 13th, 2008
Lenovo normally has a presence in just the PC hardware market, but apparently is set to join the smartphone market with a model that resembles the iPhone.
The design takes a few concepts from the iPhone such as a full touchscreen interface which fits right into the phone’s body, and it will have minimal buttons which cuts down on the clutter. Having buttons for basic tasks such as calling, hanging up, and navigating menus increases the functionality, but the less buttons the better. These two design aspects will help the Lenovo phone have a modern, minimalistic appearance.
It’s currently only due for release in China at the moment - possibly because it’s the biggest economy that is still growing in the world today - though it especially shows the interest people increasingly have in smartphones.
Are smartphones becoming the new PC?
