Articles about artistic rendering

We've shown you the Freescale Smartbook concept at the beginning of the year, during CES Las Vegas, and now it's time to take a look at more advanced concepts, most of which might not even see the light of day. The most interesting on them, was developed by Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD) and represents a blend of portable gaming console, instant messaging device and touch tablet.I must admit it's one of the most complicated types of devices with a curious blend of integrated fun...

No, it's just a question, not news, nor a rumor. Designer Umang Dokey imagined such a tablet running Windows Phone 7 series OS, adapted for the bigger 8 inch screen. He went as far as rendering this device and made a short video clip that better explains his concept, a tablet with integrate stand that if it is folded in front of the screen can be used also as a keyboard (I'm curios how it should be balanced so that it doesn't fall on its back).Other nice features include dual webcams for 3D ...

Some are still complaining, but designer Patrycjusz Brzezinski got to work and made a rendering, complete with specs of what he believes would make the perfect iPad.His vision is called MacView and is a gadget a little too advanced for today's hardware but it's interesting to see nonetheless what's all about:sl...

If there's one constant in the gadget world it must be the fact that great designs are always copied, not just by Chinese manufacturers but also by big manufactures seeking success. If you remember the iPhone launch, the first company to announce a product with similar design was Meizu, one of China's leading MP3 player manufacturers. The M8 clone was very similar with the iPhone, offered bigger internal memory and copied almost everything from button layout to user interface.The M8 really w...
