Here's the 3D model as before. It looks a lot nicer in HD.
Comments welcome

Cool, even though it copied the curve shape from the Sony Xperia GX. At first glance I was like, WTF is with the camera position. But now it makes sense to me, since the camera is located in the hollow space it wont be scratched when the phone lies on its back.
Interesting design. but Im not a fan of the front. I think the front of the HTC One X or HTC evo 4g LTE looks better.

Thanks I actually didn't copy anything, I literally just made it up as I went along, although I did use my One X for sizing reference.
I tried to create a "one piece" look with the curved glass on the front, it's easier to see in the vid.
My only regret with this design is curving the sides of the phone, It's not really in-keeping with the design of the One series, but it's just a concept after-all.

Two things: One, I get that you love the camera position but it will cost far more sales than it gains, looking at it from a real perspective. Secondly, you don't need a new thread for every design. =p

I think the front facing camera should be to the left of the top speaker grill, and also the phone seems a bit generic.. I think it should have a key design or feature that sets it apart from other design concepts that are crappy. (not saying its bad, but its not too amazing either.) You should have something like the One V whete bottom half of the phone is curved towards the holder, but instead of having that curve be just metal and that's it, make the buttons below the screen be on that curved part with glass over them so it looks a bit cooler. So its basically the phone you have now bent towards the viewer more at the bottom.

[Photos] When you REALLY want to show off...

So I've decided that, as I've gotten a few comments already, I wanted to start a thread related to showing off your device. Take a moment, grab a camera, and take a shot or two of your device(s). Right now, I've only got my phones and primary phone accessories included (I count my GSM Datacards as part of the accessories). Not sure how many of you will throw your list in, but I'm welcoming you all to it. Hopefully, I haven't missed this somewhere else...
As you can no doubt tell, I've got some wear and tear on my devices...
nice collection of toys you've got there
Show me yours... I showed you mine... uh...wait..that sounded uhm...dirty....
Are the slides on all those pretty much still tight?
I'll show you who's boss in a couple of days

None of them slide without me telling them to, if that's what you're asking. Each one will go to its regular sliding spot, stop, and hold until pressure (I'd say regular pressure, not just a tap, but actual pressure) is applied to push it back. I didn't have the Wizards when I started, so I can't speak for them. The Tytn and Kaiser I had from day one, both work just as well as they did then.. I do notice a bit more of an overhang to the opposite side (i.e. when it's in, it hangs a bit more than it should, but nothing overly noticeable).
Heres' my set:
Top Row:
-left: HTC Handomium (made it in Ceramics, not yet released )
-right: Motorola S9HD
Middle Row from left to right:
-ATT Tilt, Cingular 8525, ATT Fuze, Cingular 8525 (bricked radio), HTC Universal
Bottom Row:
-left: HP Jornada 567
-right: Motorola S9 (going back)

Here is my stash. I didn't include my iPhone, I felt dirty putting it up there with the windows mobile stuff, but I threw my touch in it.

I should have put my blue angel in there along with my curve. Damn I have too many old phones and stuff. If anyone wants all that I'll trade everything there (except the touch ) for a touch pro that is in great shape with no problem
^^ isn't that the iPhone in the red condom anyways?

He said it was his Touch and good decision in not putting the iPhone in there
You'll trade all 7 devices for a Touch Pro?

I'll take everything there + the Blue Angel and Curve. I'll go get a BNIB Fuze/Touch Pro for you. Come to Georgia we can do the transaction in person.

What phone to buy

Hi boys and girls!
I was planning on buying the new Diamond 2 as soon as it hit the shelves here in Norway, but as HTC still thinks I should pay for the repair of an USB port which was DOA I have decided to try to find some other phone...
So - anyone have any good suggestions?
Cheers!
Nokia 5110
I prefer the lime green casing myself, but that is personal preference, as is selecting a device or a type of wine.

@ Red: Thanks for the suggestion, but I find it too small for my liking. My three "musts" are:
1. The handset need to be sturdy. If i forget my hammer, I need something to hit other drivers with.
2. Must come with its own backpack, and the fabric must be washable.
3. I sometimes use the phone in my care, so the top part must be possible to detach from the battery. There just isn't space in my estate car to have the battery in the front.
My best bet til now is this model:

haha great response. With all honesty go with something a bit inexpensive in the meantime if you are waiting for TP2 to be released in your country.
Actually, I'd rather go for something NOT from HTC...
Go for Touch Pro 2 or Toshiba TG01
Or buy the new HTC Touch HD ...
Thanks for the suggestion. Will have to have a look at the Toshiba. As for HTC, I'd really like to stuff the aforementioned phone (the Ericsson) somewhere the sun don't shine. Unfortunately, I think I will have to use "most people" as a baseline for sun-exposure, as I have a feeling these guys (?) do a lot of "work" on all fours
I understand your reluctance to get a HTC again I for one have a HD which is actually really good although when i first brought one it had 3 dead pixels and although htc wouldnt replace it the shop i brought it from would, now after 3 months or so my replacement has just developed a stuck pixel which I have never seen before I've has so many products with lcd screens and worked in a shop for a bit that sold them and only ever seen them come with a dead/stuck pixel. its not really noticeable but very annoying considering the price of the phone. So I was thinking thats the last time i buy a htc but then I realized there isn't any 1 else who makes anything near as good in terms of features and looks.
my first choice would be the hd
go for the HD or a super processor snapdragon on the Toshiba TG01

USB/Charging jack UGH

This is in a horrible location.
That's all.
No other complaints. No dust under screen yet, no dead pixels, no death grip.
I've had phones with the jacks in every damn spot on the phone. I always hate them at first because the prior phone had it in a different place and I had gotten used to it. My last couple phones were G2 and MT4G and they had the same spot as the S4G, so I love the location. You'll probably adjust to it and start to like it.

Yeah, you're probably right... I'm just glad I don't seem to have some of the other issues people are having.
Still can't wait for root though so I can use my apps that require root!

i prefer it on the side rather than down. but the reason why it is on the side
well first of all you have a qHD 16:9 wide screen. what is it good for? WATCHING Videos/Movies and surfing the web
so because of this when the Sensation sits on the docking station, it is sideways so you can browse the net, watch a movie while it is syncing/charging, plus its more stable than a phone upright
I used to hate it when I first got it but now I love it more than any other location. It completely makes sense once you start gaming. When the USB port is located at the bottom, I always have to change my grip when in landscape view if I want to use it while charging.
I don't have a docking station so for me I can't prop the phone up to watch a movie. Some apps won't rotate the screen the other way.
lmfao, I hate looking for that jack when it's all dark and I cant use the phone as a flashlight.

This is the small things that shows, HTC do study and think before they design. Like moving the power button to the right (better for landscape mode). I'm used to on the left with my desire.
I'd prefer charging slot on the bottom. As a matter of fact, I'd prefer headphone jack on the bottom as well. I hate having 1 cable sticking out from the side and one from the top when in the the car. I would also kill for optical trackpad but that's another story.

I agree with you completely regarding the car issue... And a dedicated camera button and optical tracked are the only things that would make this hardware perfect imo.

Try a right angle usb cable. Makes it more bearable.
This location workd fine for me...so far!

New leaked pics of Nexus Prime

Here is a possible picture of Nexus Prime and his 1,280x72 display screen resolution:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19736_7-20115325-251/might-this-be-the-nexus-prime/
That's 320dpi on 4.5" screen vs Apple's 326dpi on a 3.7" screen. I'll take that in the Super AMOLED plus please.
They better have a huge battery to last! Notice the touch on-screen buttons
My prediction is that the size of the phone will be just about the same as Nexus s but the extra space for buttons and probably little more on top makes the extra .5" of screen.
And when you think about it, it makes total sense because for movie watching, you can just get those buttons out of the way and have a bigger screen.
I wish it's not only released under Verizon as rumor said so.. it would be great if it is a GSM/CDMA compatible device

That would be an asinine move figuring iPhone is on the big 3 now. And I don't know where you read that. (I didn't read the cnet article there so if it was there...)
I like that leak better than the last that everyone believes. And that's just some words with Honeycomb buttons.
Of course this could just be the Honeycomb launcher theme with a background image of what appears to be info about the phone.

I really hope your prediction comes true about the size of the new Nexus because if it's not, I won't be buying a phone that's over 4,3 and if i can't upgrade to a Nexus phone than i might just test uncharted water...
Releasing on locked cdma carrier is bad move should stick to the traditional unlocked GSM that's if it is true about verizon
Sent from my Google Nexus S using xda premium
They need to release on all carriers. Also, they better stick to one version/name for all carriers like they did with the nexus s
love samsung displays
My wife got the Epic when I got my EVO. I envy her display. The colors are so much more rich. A co-worker just got the new Galaxy 2...WOW.
Not sure I like the idea of zero physical buttons. Though that might just be PTSD from the Blackberry Storm 2.
wow 4.6inch screen lol. this thing is gonna be a monster
whoooooa
I hope it isn't as curved at the picture makes it look
Love these leaks, the iphone 5 looked so cool
Oh that's cool! 2
other than the LTE features, its no real different than whats already available. Also why the 1.2Ghz processor. Most are releasing with 1.5

Id say real, looks like a authentic photo with reflections on the poster
Shows 1.2ghz Dual core Processor, with the dates 10/11/2011 or 11/10/2011 american date
Super amoled which we guessed etc 4.7" screen it says
I agree with you. Lets wait for HK tonight and confirm all this
one thing that i find strange is
Why are the 3 dot connectors on the same side as the power button? if u have it docked on the side how would u turn it on?
Seems abit silly which could indicate fake but its hard to call something real when its unreleased
But "what if" that is not a connector?
any theorys on what else 3 dots could do? 3 dots is pretty common for dock connectors
what if they are on both sides?
like ,for fingers, not to "slide" from hand ?

That doesn't make any sense at all. (No offense, just being brutally honest.)
The dock pin connectors belong on the other side but otherwise this is pretty much spot on.

they are on the power button side
The official teaser video showed the pins on the same side as the power button. The only thing I see that makes me doubt it is the lack of curvature on the screen.
i like it and think thats what its going to look like. we will see today and i work at a cell phone store and the nexus is in my cellbrite for like two weeks already and we get promo posters and cards and t shirts all the time before phones come out so why not and its china we all know the chinnese got the inside info on everything
why don't you take a few shots and post here to see those posters

The curve is probably pretty subtle like on the Nexus S. Those blue lines in the teaser really exaggerated the curves

Yeah, but I saw the enhanced photos from the video, and the curve on the actual device appears much more distinct than the Nexus. We'll see though I suppose.
It's real.

is that chrome around the phone
if so yuck
still want though
What concerns me is the bottom bezel. It looks like there's a lot of black after the on-screen buttons on the bottom. Seems like a lot of wasted real-estate. In the leaked videos, it's even more apparent: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Py9TfZGie48
I think the phone is too long... =T
