San Francisco design shop envisions iPhone 5 with laser keyboard, holographic display (with video)

“There is no shortage of iPhone 5 renderings, leaks and case designs and we posted those on a few different occasions,” Christian Zibreg reports for 9to5Mac.

“As opposed to artists’ renditions predominantly based on leaked cases and late rumors, let’s step back for a moment and think big,” Zibreg reports. “Courtesy of Aatma Studio, a San Francisco-based 3D animation and digital content shop, here comes a cool iPhone 5 concept they fashioned.”

We at Aatma are massive fans of the iPhone and are eagerly awaiting the release of iPhone 5. Meanwhile, going by the buzz the iPhone 5 is generating, we felt it’s a good time to launch a concept such as this, and showcase our vision of key features of an iPhone 5 or subsequent models could have in the future. – Aatma CEO Pramod Modi Shantharam

  1. Wonderful concept. I always hoped for the iTouch to become the basis for the next phone. Slim design, slightly bigger screen and wow… Never imagined a holographic keyboard and projection. Now that rules!

  2. Yeah, right. Maybe the iPhone 12 after every other smartphone OS already had the feature for years but Apple needed time to “get it right.”

    The days of Apple introducing smartphone features like this first are gone. Now all they seem to do is play catchup. That once a year upgrade cycle doesn’t help.

  3. Cool!

    It’s funny because I was thinking about some of Apple’s recently received patents, and how Apple could use them. I thought of the keyboard idea, but figured there was no way you could do it with a device so thin!
