Xperia ZX (MY OWN CONCEPT)

[zzcool]

hi first off i spoke with an admin and was told that it's fine to post my ideas.

So i thought i'd share my concept,

I made a thread a few months ago that got alot of negative feedback. I then made a thread showing my first ideas of concept but it wasn't in the right section, So i thought i'd post it here. Since then i have started making my own concept pictures of what i want the xperia z successor to look like.

the xperia z as i have mentiond before is a master piece and i don't want sony to steer away from this, Being square minimalistic phone. The xperia z is basically my dream phone but i want some improvements so thats why i decided to make my own.

My own design idea would involve a sony developed oled screen, Stereo front speakers, Sony logo at the side not the front, Xperia logo much less sticking out placed in the corner. The camera in these pictures is just a placeholder. The onscreen menu buttons would be hidable with an easy swipe and fully customizable, Such as changing size icons placement (bottom top left or right) color, Since it's a oled screen you won't see that the buttons are part of the screen itself, So you can do alot with that like having a full keypad and a smaller screen to work on when for example in phone mode.

i also thought of a aluminium design instead of glass but i don't want it to be textured like the one in these pictures i want a solid matte black backside with no texture on it

lastly a xperia tablet z padfone concept that let's you dock the phone in a xperia tablet z battery/screen thats ofcourse also waterproof like the phone (i know aluminium might not work for a waterproof phone but it's just ideas)

then comes my "crazy" ideas that would be a tiny screen at the side of the phone instead of the sony logo showing for example the time or a extra oled slipout screen that would act as a gamepad just like the xperia play but instead of an actual pad just an extra screen

To be honest I find the speaker grills hideous. The back as well, an all aluminium casing wouldn't be nice I guess, at least not in matte. Just my opinion, though. And placing the Sony logo on the side would be awkward. The only thing I'd like to see on my XZ is the LED notification light of the ZL. But keep trying different stuff, everybody got their own taste. And as long you enjoy creating new concepts, keep doing so, regardless of what others might say or think.

what kind of speaker grills would you prefer (i was thinking of swapping places with them so the bottom one is at the top and top one is at the bottom) as for the sony logo i think it would look nice at the side

and a completely black aluminium back like the htc one would also be nice in my opinion

this is an older concept i did

Good !
Now put sony Logo on bottom Grill of Speaker and make it like its Glowing when Phone on,and also make this Sony logo the Home Button,what do you think?
Xenone Flash on Back of the Phone.

did you do this yourself? as it looks very nice though i would make the bottom bezel as thin as the top rgb sony logo would be nice

and it's nice to see that people somewhat like my design i expected it to be hated

as i like things many don't like

Yes Its my own created,
Actually Xperia Z design is very Impressive and Thin Bezel of Xperia Zl is Too Excellent, If Sony Remake both of them in One than it would be Superb ......... :silly:

could you remake your design in the same square shape as the z and zl

then have extra thin bezels like the zl or thinner with stereo front speakers

here is my compact mode feature you drag the onscreen menu buttons out and it reveals a full sized keypad that stays untill you drag it down to onscreen buttons size

drag it further and hide it all completely

Needs branding on the front or back, a plain front is too iPhoneish, although my perfect device would be the same width and height dimensions of the 4S as a 5" screen is just a tad too big, because depending what you're doing you need both hands to use it.

i do like the design of the iphone though just square and thinner bezels and it would be alot nicer

4.8 4.7 would probaböy be perfect 1080P

waterproof

with a metal charger dock the plastic dock i got with my xperia z just felt cheap compared to my xperia z

+1. What I'd like to see is an illuminated Sony logo, similar to my HX Bravia, but you could have it on the Phone so the front looks plain (the design would probably lead to a slight ghosting of the logo) until you turn on the screen.

i'd love that too but maybe i want an empty front

side touch buttons arrow/home button to navigate the menus from touch sensitive side buttons at the side not at the front

someone also made a 3d render of my sidescreen idea i had it's fun seeing how my idea is now a 3d render

That doesn't look bad, similar to the display on the MW600? But that render for me highlights why you need frontal branding, imo it looks like it could be any old Japanese import. Here's my tweak of your render...

Off...

i would add the sony logo but i honestly want it to be empty at the front with really thin bezels it being that much squared is abit too much though

i prefer it to how i made it very thin bezel and a big screen

though add the sony logo

original z is simply the most pretty smartphone i ever seen
design is absolutely perfect

the only minor things i would like to change are those ''trap'' for waterproof stuff

actually, adding an physical and designed button for camera would be nice and avoid any trap

yeah it is it's a shame about the hardware not being top end many removed their anti shatter films to make it empty at the front i also like a empty phone with no logos and completely black square

i like it but move the bottom sony logo down a mm or so

also can you change the shape to something more square? not alot just by 0.5% or so not as much as the 3d render i posted basically the shape of my design i posted the one with the extra thin bezels

this is starting to look great too me

i do like how you put the xperia logo at the bottom i had it in the corner but this looks nice too

I likes, but somehow I'm getting Déjà vus of other existing smartphones. I like the Xperia on the bottom and would be awesome if it was a led light! It's pretty nice and might consider buying such phone.
