From the designer of the uber-hip Macintosh Phone comes another tribute to devices past. The Sony Talkman Smartphone takes inspiration from the brand’s iconic 1979 Walkman. Although the concept sports a 5″ screen & has dimensions comparable to today’s flagship models, it sets itself apart from the more “minimalist” competition through the use of chunky & tactile buttons within an asymmetric aluminium housing sporting a two tone colour scheme. High end DAC, an analogue volume controller, a dedicated line out as well as front spacing stereo speakers mean audiophiles will love!
