10 of the best smartphone concepts we wish were real
What could have been...and might one day be
Designer: Enrico Vicari and Giuseppe Avanzato
The Nexus P3 concept reminds us in some ways of the LG G5, as it has a slot which you can add extra hardware to. But the approach is slightly different, with the port sliding out to house a QWERTY keyboard or a gamepad. Or, if you don't want any additional control options, you can put a massive 4,700mAh battery inside for long-lasting fun.
QWERTY phones are rare and there hasn't been a mainstream smartphone with a built in gamepad since the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play, so the Nexus P3 would fill two niches instantly, as well as presumably having amazing battery life, which is something almost all handsets lack.
