The mobile phone is always very easy to use, which can be seen from the more and more thin instructions. But the process of designing a mobile phone, whether it is an external or internal, there is no doubt that is very complicated. But this did not scare DIY enthusiasts. Although they have a self-made mobile phone and today's smartphone is quite based, you can't deny interesting in these devices. Recently, the technology website Phonearena has inquired a variety of creative DIY phones.
Phoenard
A few months ago, Sumasta Pamungkas from the Netherlands won a award because of its excellent Phoenard project. This is a programmable device with mobile phones, but calls and texting can be far from all the capabilities of this device. Phoenard allows users to write applications, even through expansion interfaces and other devices "conversation." The latter makes Phoenard have a variety of new technologies, such as flashing lights, or brains that are self-balancing robots.
In terms of configuration, Phoenard has a 2.6-inch touch screen, ATMEL microcontroller, Bluetooth and GPS connection. If necessary, the user can also bring Wi-Fi and MP3 playback capabilities to the device via the expansion board.
Piphone
Piphone is also a mobile phone made in a common hardware material in the DIY circle. This equipment is made based on the Raspberry Pie, and is equipped with a GSM module, a 2.8-inch touch screen, and a lithium polymer rechargeable battery.
Producer David Hunt said that Piphone project is more a conceptual verification device that exhibits how to use the common components to make a hardware product. He also mentioned that the process of making this phone is also full of fun.
Piphone's total cost is $ 158 (about RMB 990), where the GSM module cost is the highest, with a $ 300 (about RMB 300), and the Raspberry and touch screen modules are 40 and $ 35, respectively. RMB 250 and 220 yuan).

Riotboard Cortex-A9 I.MX 6Solo processor is available on a single board computer such as high-end handheld, gaming machine.
DIY Cellphone
The name of this mobile phone is very straightforward, called Diy Cellphone, and the producer is David Mellis in the MIT. Its production is very difficult, as long as you know how to use the soldering iron is enough.
Diy Cellphone is priced at $ 200 (about RMB 1250), which will be provided to consumers in the form of a kit, which contains all components required to make, but the outer casing portion of the device needs to be made separately. In addition, DIY CellPhone has two options on the display, namely black and white screens similar to old Nokia phones, or more basic red LED array combinations (can display letters).
Neo-Victorian
The last DIY mobile phone is named Neo-Victorian, and the manufacturer is Poles Johan Von Red. The internal components of this device are removed from the old SAGEM mobile phone, and then it is placed in a wood + brass-made housing. Although it looks very cumbersome, it will definitely be very complicated with it to send text messages, but you must admit that this small device also has its own charm.
Although this device is no longer sold, the producer updated a better model in their own ETSY page (the online store platform of the monopoly handicrafts), but the price is as high as $ 516 (about RMB 3225).
