It is a common trend nowadays for gadgets such as mobile phones to always be smaller in size as opposed to its predecessor. From the bulky square-like appearance to the slimmer and more compact form, mobile phones continue to diminish in size but is only restricted by one important factor, the mobile phone’s display screen.

As much as people crave more compact and mobile designs, they also want their screens to be bigger in dimension, a dilemma that many mobile phone designers struggled with over the years.

Then came the Brix Mobile Phone.

Brix is a modular mobile phone designed by Seokwon Hong, with a screen spanning the whole width and length of the front-face panel of the unit. It makes use of a touch screen technology for input and has a design that rivals the sleekness and simplicity of the IPhone.

But it isn’t the full-screen feature that makes the Brix Mobile Phone revolutionary. For if you would take another Brix unit and connect them to another one, they would form a much bigger output screen.

Get enough Brix Mobile Phone Units and you could connect them to make a big screen TV, great for those late night cravings for movie viewing or for last-minute presentations. Once connected, the handsets can communicate to one another and share files like movies, pictures, and other multimedia files.

The concept of connecting a number of units to create a big screen is a very unique concept. However, there really isn’t much application for its feature aside from having a big screen for viewing. Still, if the people behind the Brix concept could use this technology for other things, possibilities would be endless.
