Maple Wooden Phone



The gadget presented to you here is called Maple wooden phone, which is just a piece of wood before you touch it. , when it gets your touch, it’ll turn itself into a cellphone which you can make calls using it.

The Maple phone is made out of African Blackwood, which comes in the dimensions of 4.5 x 10.4 x 9.8 cm. It’s loaded with those common features found on today’s cellphones, such as MP3 player, digital camera, and of course the basic functions like calling or texting.

The Maple phone is to have its display placed at the back, which will be shown to you when you slide the handset. The phone is equipped with various sensors which are sensitive to touches. When it gets your first touch while being at the off state, it’ll turn itself on, light up all those touch-
sensitive buttons and become ready waiting for your next inputs. The Maple phone is said to use the capacitive touch technology.

The phone now still stays as a concept, which was designed by Hyun Jin Yoon and Eun Hak Lee. Now words about when it’ll go for production run. The price could be cheaper than any other average cellphones, since it’s made of wood. But, hopefully, it’ll get treated to prevent from becoming the food of termites.
