Nokia has leaked a number of new handset designs, and a new User Interface. The first handset has a swivelling form-factor, ala the 7370…or that’s what you get when you open it with your left hand.

However, open it with your right hand, and the phone reveals a touchscreen, in place of the phone’s keypad, thanks to a hinge, which, when the phone is open, reveals a normal keypad, or a touchscreen, depending on what way the phone is opened.

Next, Nokia’s version of a touch interface. The d-pad – actually a scroolbar, is curved, and boasts touch sensitivity. It is more minimalistic than a circular scrollbar, and looks to be easier to use.

Rounding out this array of concepts is a form-factor tailored to media playback. Watching a film on your phone can be quite tedious, and, if you lay the phone on a flat surface, you can only see the screen properly from lowering your neck. The above image speaks for itself. So, some interesting here, hopefully some become a reality quite soon
