# Bracelet Mobile Phone The Liteon Concept By thischick | Published 2007-03-11 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bracelet-mobile-phone References: [coroflot](http://www.coroflot.com/public/individual_set.asp?individual_id=124172&set_id=57990&sort_by=1&c=1&) The Liteon [concept cell phone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meti) by Tao Ma is a stylish bracelet as well as a phone. While it is asthetically-pleasing, I rate it a zero on the functionality meter. Traditionally, a [clasp bracelet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxurious-safety-bracelet) such as this one can be difficult to remove. If you were in a hurry to answer this phone, you might not be able to get it open in time. As well, you might want to pack a screwdriver to push the [miniature, tricked-out, be-jeweled buttons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tilink-titanium-multifunction-edc-bracelet). There is even the possibility you might break a nail, so this phone hardly seems functional for the style diva. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 90% | Activity: 63% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Modern](https://www.trendhunter.com/modern) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Wearable Tech-fashion Hybrid:** Opportunity to merge fashion and technology to create stylish and functional wearable technology. - **Simplification of Phone Design:** Opportunity to simplify phone design to increase functionality and accessibility. - **Voice-activated Wearables:** Opportunity to incorporate voice activation technology into wearable tech for added convenience. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion:** Fashion industry can explore the integration of technology to create innovative and stylish wearable tech. - **Mobile Phones:** Mobile phone industry can innovate by simplifying and improving the functionality of phone design. - **Consumer Electronics:** The consumer electronics industry can explore the potential of voice-activated wearables for added convenience and accessibility. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cubic Industrial Phone Models](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimalist-phone-concept.md) - [Clutch Purse Smartphone Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honor-v-purse.md) - [Tech-Infused Jewelry Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/samsung-slac.md) - [Simplistic Folding Clamshell Smartphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/01-phone.md) - [Industrial Smartphone Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/braun-what-if-phone.md) - [Mini Transparent Smartphone Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nothing-mini-phone.md) - [Digital Detox Phone Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimalist-foldable-phone.md) - [Nostalgic Flip Phone Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nokia-n90.md) - [Hourglass-Shaped Phone Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/meti.md)
