Phonebloks: How Possible Can This Project Be? by mavtrevor(m): 9:56pm On Sep 14, 2013
Imagine a phone made of detachable bloks connected to the base which locks everything together into a solid phone. If a blok breaks you can easily replace it, if it's getting old just upgrade.

purpinkx: Every invention has an aim ! Can you make me see the aim of yours

First it is not my invention and secondly the idea is as simple as the video explained. Ok lets look at it this way, assuming you have a phone you could simply upgrade its hardware without having to change your phone entirely or buy a new one, wont you like it? This idea is aimed at building a phone you could keep for a very long time and upgrade its hardware components without having to change ya entire phone.

Imagine your phone has a 5MP camera and you suddenly need a better camera, instead of you going to buy a nnew phone with a 13MP camera, you could just upgrade just your camera for the spec you want, if your screen gets broken, you could just chage just the scree alone, a phone you could upgrade its ram, battery, and any other accessory without having to buy a new phone....

on mass production it may not be bearing in mind they will recycle/reuse the old ones, so when u change any part or simply upgrade u could give back the old part which someone elsewhere may want even. I know the idea seems impossible, but i could say everything is possible in tech.
