Smartphones with Physical Keyboards Are Scarce These Days, This Project Turns a Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Into Slider Phone with Keyboard and Touchpad
A new project has successfully converted the Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ into a slider phone via 3D printing and a remote control, adding a touchpad and keyboard to the device. The result is a comfortable typing experience for longer texts, which was previously unattainable on modern smartphones. This unique modification can be replicated by users, thanks to available 3D-printing designs.
- The introduction of physical keyboards in smartphones has long been a desired feature, but manufacturers have instead focused on large flat displays and minimalist designs.
- How will the resurgence of slider phones with physical keyboards influence the overall design language of future smartphones?
