Starck's second smartphone design (see next slide for the Mi Mix), Alo has been created in collaboration with fellow French designer Jerome Olivet and electronics company Thomson and completely reimagines the way mobile phones look and function. While still at the concept stage, a prototype is expected to be developed paving the way for a revolution in smartphone technology.
Alo does away with the basic rectangular shape we have become used to, instead replacing it with a screen-less, aesthetically pleasing aluminium form which projects 3D holographic images of messages, pictures, videos or anything else you would normally view on a phone screen. With no keys to disrupt its curved form, Alo is also completely voice activated and is equipped with high performance voice recognition and artificial intelligence software so the more you talk to it the better it responds to your voice. Fan of a selfie? Don't worry, Alo boasts a dual camera and high-speed charge so you need never miss a photo opportunity.
