First Pictures of Alienware Android Cell Phone

Google and Dell are on the point of launching a new mobile phone to run on the Android operating system, probably at the 3GSM World Congress in Barcelona that’s going on at the moment. Dell have tried to enter the mobile phone market once before but their range of PDAs was a complete flop.

Well, would you buy a Dell phone? Exactly.

Dell have also recently acquired Alienware, the trendiest tech company in the world, an expert in Video, Gaming, and Audio, and a company crying out for a mobile phone.

So here are the first pictures of the Alienware mobile phone!

  • Classic Alienware eye catching design
  • Large screen with high resolution
  • Superb video gaming capability
  • Fantastic Audio
  • Built on the Google Android platform

It’s well known that Dell want to enter the mobile phone market. Rivals such as Apple, Hewlett Packard and Asus already have mobile divisions, and last year Dell poached Motorola executive Ron Garriques to run their new global consumer group.

But so far their efforts have come unstuck, the uninspiring Axim PDA handset was dropped mid 2007, and Strategy Analytics Director Neil Mawson gave the following verdict “It makes sense for Dell to have a high-profile entry back into the market because its last effort with PDAs pretty much flopped.”

Why was this? The increasingly dull associations with the Dell brand? Maybe they should change their name to Dull. One thing for sure is there wasn’t exactly much of a stir when the last batch of handhelds were introduced.

Alienware vs dell

The brand did get a shot in the arm however in 2006 when Dell acquired Alienware, the mega-stylish American laptops and desktops manufacturer, known for their expertise in video, audio and gaming.

Alienware are famous for their eye catching designs and innovative technology, only last month they launched the ultimate in video gaming experience, a giant curved monitor that fills the entire of the gamer’s peripheral vision. Conclusion, Alienware cool, Dell not cool.

The argument for an Alienware mobile phone is overwhelming. It would have the striking design to make an impression in a mobile market dominated by fashion phones, it would instantly be the coolest phone on the market thanks to the popularity of the Alienware brand, it would have the marketing muscle of Dell behind it to push it beyond its established niche and into the mainstream, and it would be the mobile gamer’s dream, just as video gaming on mobile phones is starting to enter the picture.

To add to the excitement there have been rumours recently that Dell and Google are on the point of making a surprise announcement at the 3GSM World Mobile Congress with speculation growing over an iPhone-challenging mobile device.

The first wave of phones built on the Google Android Open Development Project are due this summer, what price an early announcement of a real Google phone to sink our teeth into.

cool idea and all, but that design is god awful. what is the purpose of the bottom half? sure it makes it look more like that (ugly) case, but it’s total wasted real estate. cell phones do not require a hilt.

Commentsd by Erica DeWolf February 16th, 2008 at 4:26 am

Is this serious? This is the “google” phone? It looks like a toy. Sure, the features and functionality might be great, but it should be slick…something that would “look good” on everyone from teenagers to business professionals.

That design sucks dick.

Commentsd by Annon Coward February 16th, 2008 at 2:28 pm

This looks like a cheap POS. The grill is taking up way too much space, space that could be used for a full QWERTY keyboard. If I’m going to spend money on a phone I’d rather invest it in something where the designer used the space on the phone wisely, something with some guts to it like an iPhone, a Smartphone or a Pocket PC…

Commentsd by Anonymous Coward February 16th, 2008 at 2:55 pm

As slashdot points out, artists renderings of what YOU think an alienware cellphone would look like DEFINATELY ARE NOT “the first pictures of the Alienware mobile phone!”

And I really hope that those cheesy renderings aren’t anything close to what Alienware will produce, if in fact this story has any merit at all. Producing a cellphone design based upon the latest tower is a horrible design choice.

If there’s an opposite of FUD, this qualifies.

If for nothing more, the iPhone takes the cake for simplicity in design. This concept of the Alienware phone is absolutely garish, if anything. This could hardly be good for Google if Android were running on this monstrosity. Hopefully, if they do decide to come out with an Android-based phone, Alienware will keep the design simple without losing their signature look. It’s all about the KISS, and Apple gets it….let’s hope for its sake that Alienware does as well.

Commentsd by Anon February 16th, 2008 at 3:28 pm

Commentsd by jon February 16th, 2008 at 3:30 pm

If that is the design of the “iphone killer” then Apple can sleep better than ever tonight. It is hideous.

Commentsd by Ian Nicklin February 16th, 2008 at 3:46 pm

Alienware was incredibly awful as a stand-alone company: completing orders weeks or months later than scheduled, installing the wrong components, and even accidentally shipping two customers each other’s hardware (and refusing to rectify the situation)!! Rumor had it that Alienware faced potential lawsuits in Florida due to situations such as these. It was definitely a company in trouble, and not a good company at all once it started catering to global customers.

Conclusion: Alienware is not cool at all.

Dell started in much the same way: as a small business, it was awesome. People who were around when Dell first started making PCs know exactly what I’m talking about - Michael Dell would randomly call customers asking them if they had any issues, questions, or concerns…
…then Dell expanded and is now reputable for being one of the worst PC manufacturers to buy from today.

All of the former Alienware customers know better than to buy an Alienware phone, or anything from the company anyways. They, just like Dell, are now the laughing stock of the educated tech sector.

Commentsd by lynchseattle February 16th, 2008 at 4:01 pm

Alienware is a performance leader. I’ve never heard of Alienware being “cool” or a leader in design. Based on those illustrations that further confirms that they should stick to PCs.

Commentsd by Jarvik February 16th, 2008 at 4:07 pm

Alienware stylish? You’re joking right? They are the tackiest computers you can buy. Who wants a computer that looks like some sort of alien fish? There are plenty of PC makers (usually Japanese) who can make actual nice looking/stylish systems, as well as Apple of course.

Alienware also isn’t even popular except within a small niche of hardcore gamers who drag their ugly overpriced computers to LAN parties and don’t have the skills to build their own systems. I’d say the market for an ugly phone like Alienware would build (such as your mockup) is pretty small indeed.

Commentsd by randomvariable February 16th, 2008 at 4:47 pm

HEEELLOO!

This is fan art. Not a design of an actual phone. In fact, there’s no hint whatsoever that Alienware is designing phone, just an author claiming “Dell not cool, Alienware cool” several dozen times with a claim that they should make the phone.

I’ll go back to my Blue Peter project now…

Wow, hideous and absurd mock ups.
Dell will once again will fail miserably. There are so many competencies that Dell does not have in regards to mobile phone design, manufacturing, and software integration. It will probably be some lackluster Chinese hardware design with the Dell label slapped on. Besides what is the synergy of selling PCs and phones?

Well, regardless of all the negativism, I think it looks pretty cool. If it would double as a taser, that would be sooo awesome…

Commentsd by TxtEdMacs February 16th, 2008 at 5:47 pm

Striking design, however, those ridges could be cutting depending upon an individual’s finger size. Hence, the question becomes: how much creature comfort is associated with the design. That is, is it an eye catching object with too sharp edges for a significant fraction of the target market?

Being a physical disaster need not damn it too failure if it catches enough eyes. Look at women’s shoes. Torture chambers that sell.

Commentsd by Sean O’Hara February 16th, 2008 at 6:03 pm

I’d definitely buy a Dell phone over some overpriced POS from Alienware that’s only selling point is the casing. Whoever designed this obviously doesn’t get what makes the iPhone popular — it’s a sleek, simple design with easy usability, not a bunch of flanges and sliding parts.

Commentsd by Eli February 16th, 2008 at 6:06 pm

It’s important to keep in mind that Alienware does not actually have the capability to design and field their own hardware. Their computers are just made from standard components in a gaudy case (and are probably just rebadged Dells now), and even their much-touted curved display was developed by NEC via an OEM in California.

While I’ll freely admit that they’re masters of marketing, and of separating wannabe gamers from their money, they certainly don’t have the clout or engineering capabilities to compete with Apple on any level.

Yes the pictures are ugly. So ugly in fast that I suspect they were intended as a joke (I’m not joking). But for everyone who is commenting on how ugly the pics are, please bear in mind that they are NOT from Alienware. Look at the pics: it says they were produced by “Jas Seehra for Dial a Phone”. The Alienware phone my well turn out to be ugly, but it won’t look like this.

Commentsd by gril February 16th, 2008 at 8:53 pm

i disagree with you calling alienware the “trendiest tech company in the world”

maybe 2 years ago, lol. At this point, i would give that title to much more exclusive and less-known companies such as voodoo or falcon northwest. Alienware has a pretty bad rep for being:
a) unreliable
and b) super friggin loud

so i wouldn’t buy this phone because it’s a pretty ugly concept. lol, imagine a phone with the AlienFX lighting system.

Commentsd by Meyouthem February 16th, 2008 at 9:09 pm

This phone is just plain ugly, without much, if any technological advances. The Dell phone is also ugly too. Both of these phones compared to the iPhone, simply provide no gain in technology or functionality.

I love the Apple hardware, but ABSOLUTELY HATE its software. I was hopeful that this product might be a nice offering, but it is just another piece of junk.

Alienware as a technology leader? What in God’s green earth has the author of this article been smoking? And, would he mind sharing please? :P

Commentsd by William Burns February 16th, 2008 at 9:14 pm

Dell seriously wants Alienware to fail, don’t they? This is why the execs at Dell should keep their friggin paws off the design process in a cool company they purchase. We all know Alienware would have designed something much cooler than this if they were left alone to do so and be creative.

Commentsd by Speed February 16th, 2008 at 9:15 pm

This is one beautiful phone. Makes a good base to develop it further and compete with the iphone!! Improve the screen/software… add a 16gig harddisk(someone has one the size of a penny) and loads of hot software … heck make it all Linux based. The screen bigger…With 16 gigs and an AMD athlon single core for mobile phones and you could really have a mass market super success. But overall the bass design looks good for a more basic mob phone.

Commentsd by torvalds@linux.com February 16th, 2008 at 9:21 pm

This is one UGLY product, that only its mother could love. All I want my phone to do is have text message capability, and make phone calls — plain and simple. If I want to browse the Internet, I’ll use a PC tablet, a laptop, or maybe even my platform of choice a desktop computer, but surely not an impractical cell phone!

Since my cell phone bill is about 40% the cost of my monthly house mortgage cost, why can’t cell phone companies stop adding all these extra useless features and functionality, and just make a fantastic cell phone that is just a cell phone with a battery charge that lasts for a month?

Come on corporate America, and do not add any C.R.A.P. software to my devices either like Sony, Apple, and Microsoft does (I’ll rip it off and run Linux on it if you do), I want to operate any piece of software I own on any platform I pay for with my hard earned money.

There is no way that even Alienware would introduce something that hideous.

No way in hell would it happen. While Dell owns Alienware, Alienware is still pretty much run as a seperate company. And there’s no one at Alienware who would even be able to do prototyping of a cellphone.

Also the face-plate wouldn’t look like their old Predator2 cases because I know for a fact they’re trying to get away from that design as a whole.

Commentsd by Devin February 16th, 2008 at 11:30 pm

I doubt Google or Dell would approve something like this, only a niche market would like this phone and they need something that everyone will love if they want to take on the iphone. They need to come out with something better than the iphone in looks, functionality and features to get the attention off of Apple and get android the attention they want.

Commentsd by havoc February 16th, 2008 at 11:48 pm

This is one ugly ass phone, nothing like what a GOOD alienware design would look like. It offers nothing extra for interface from a normal phones, but its bulky and simply bad.

Not an iphone killer. Not a good rendering of what might come out of alienware… just stupid stupid stupid.

Do not enjoy this article. Laugh at it. For your own sake.

Commentsd by Stephen Davis February 17th, 2008 at 12:08 am

Jas Seehra - Your illustration looks like it was designed by a five year old with a very limited imagination. It shows a complete lack of effort on your part. Why didn’t you actually design something that looks like a phone, and incorporate a few small elements of Alienware’s case designs? That may have been at least tasteful. Instead you just copied the case design and added a keypad. That’s just lazy. By the way, generally designers just design the phone, the engineers are generally better with the features.

Nick - Your article read like a 10th grade English project gone wrong. You write like a 15 year old. e.g. - “Why was this? The increasingly dull associations with the Dell brand? Maybe they should change their name to Dull.”

You wind up coming off like another Alienware fan boy with too much time on his hands.

I wasted 2 minutes reading this drivel, but then I spent a real good, worthwhile 4 minutes talking shit about it…

calm down people
Dial-a-phone heard a rumour of alienware/dell making a google android phone. They have simply created an artists impression of what the phone might be like by using other alienware products(eg desktop pc). Alienware is a repectful and cool company, so I’m sure that if they were to create a phone it would probably be very attractive and compact phone, or at least something futuristic
Just let the blog author have a little fun, as I’m sure if this was what you were paid to do you’d be interested in a phone like this

The iPhone concept is a great concept, touch screen, wireless for hotspots, touch screen, virtual voicemail cool features, but what about the rest of us power users who need a fully functional PDA that can be syncronized with our planners and contacts, and still be just as sleek and sharp as the competition. Can we please get a nice slick phone for the rest of us non apple lovers who don’t feel the need to go buy a phone that isn’t even 3G compliant. Its a waste of money to buy something that is already out of date the day they built it. I may be ranting but i don’t see any of the other phone manufacturer’s even attempting to create something to compete with the iPhone. I want to buy a new phone, but please give me something worth buying.

* Classic Alienware eye catching design

Commentsd by Luís June 27th, 2008 at 4:11 pm

How much?

Commentsd by kickback999 June 30th, 2008 at 5:01 pm

Dell is way cooler than alienware.
Alienware = for STUPID idiots who have more money than sense and very low IQ.
Dell = for more intelligent idiots who have less money.
Smart people build their own computers.
Anyway have you seen that video of an android phone running quake?
Looks pretty good.

Commentsd by patty July 12th, 2008 at 9:24 am

it would be much better if instead of the screen sliding, it was fixed and the flashing light thingo was the number pad. It would make me buy one then :D

Commentsd by steve July 26th, 2008 at 8:51 pm

how do i get one of these cell phones there so cool how much are they

Commentsd by bugsy July 30th, 2008 at 4:18 pm

Dell and Alienware are the same company….therfore dell = cool or Alienware=not cool :D

Commentsd by Evan August 30th, 2008 at 9:06 am

i hope it comes in black, and have different lights on the sides. I’m willing to buy it.

Commentsd by dave August 30th, 2008 at 9:24 pm

when is this phone coming out then and how much will it be if any one knows?

Commentsd by a f September 5th, 2008 at 8:22 am

pretty interesting. To think Dell will go for Android mobile and not Windows mobile. I am pretty impressed with the move and look forward to the device arriving early.

Commentsd by Veronica Moore September 10th, 2008 at 6:36 pm

The phone is already out and i have my own now..
It is very cool and i love it..
Although, it is slightly heavy, it also very cool..

I got it for just $550 usd…

The Battery life is incredible…

Commentsd by MADISON October 6th, 2008 at 11:43 pm

what is the price

Commentsd by Alienware’s Awesome October 11th, 2008 at 2:28 am

It looks kickass but… how big is it? cuz it sais that it has “high gaming capability”. I meen, if it’s as big as some small handheld motorolla its not worth it other for its awesome look. i meen, the screen would have to at LEAST be as big as the iphone for gaming to be practical.

PS: people who think that’s ugly, take the iphone for example: its a black box with a touchscreen and an engraved apple in the back. Then you could take some motorolla or cingular phone: wow, congratulations, you just bought a refridgerator with buttons!

Commentsd by bleh October 13th, 2008 at 2:58 pm

It’s all fake, all they (the writers of this article) have done is take an Alienware tower and slightly photoshopped it. I can’t believe you’re all stupid enough to fall for this ahhaha

Commentsd by jesus mcpherson October 19th, 2008 at 11:33 pm

are you guys serious. its not a real phone. u cant play a game on that thing. and since clearly all u guys do in ur spare time is argue about which computer company is best, then dont you think you would hear more “hype” about it, or at least see someone who has it? even if it was/is a real phone, then seriously guys, someone finally find out how much it costs and were you can get one because i want it. no im kidding. but seriously. its an awesome phone, i want one.

P.S. kudos to bleh for pointing that out. youre my man bleh. REPRESENT!

What the hell’s wrong with you?Your eyes must be completely demolished!This phone is just the coolest one ever!There has never been a better design ever on a mobile phone device.Maybe you’re just jealous of not being able to buy one cause it’s gonna be too expensive.Could also be that you do not like modern/futuristic design,but in that case pls search for your new home on the graveyard.
Best regards for Alienware’s mobile device

Commentsd by folkestoner January 3rd, 2009 at 8:50 am

I’m not usually offensive but that phone looks like the designer went to toilet for a dump, looked at the tiolet paper after he wiped his ar*se and thought oooh… theres an idea.

I will not be buying this phone.

this is the coolest phone

Commentsd by Jasim Rehman February 26th, 2009 at 5:22 pm

Okay you can’t say it sucks yet, because this is just a concept for now, I would like to see a little more ingenuity in this phone, because it just looks like an Alienware skull skin on a regular phone, but the features look pretty cool. Who know, its NOT an ugly piece crap like the retards on top are saying, BUT it doesn’t show as creativity are i would like. I have an Alienware computer at home and to hear that alienware was making a cell phone? Well i just had to see it. Not the best thing to happen BUT again who know they might change the design of it. God know that almost every single ‘cool’ cell phone out there has had atleast SOME kind of face lift before it became popular. like the sony Ericsson, which their are multiple versions of, the original design was not as popular as everyone thought, so they reinvented it and made it better.

I do like the screen extending to the edge of the screen, so far I haven’t see alot of phones out there that have done that. I would like to see the grill be a little smaller, not to small but enough to show that the screen is actually bigger than the grill. I would also like to see some sort of touch screen system on it, and I don’t mean that touch sensitive numbers crap, I mean PURE TOUCH SCREEN. I don’t like the theme of the menu, I had expected alienware to make atleast a more creative menu than that simple concept, so I hope they can make it better, OR hopefully we will be able to download themes from alienwares site.

Anyway good luck to them…

-Jasim

You can tell whatever you want but the truth is that this is one of a hell space ships it is the best phone I have ever seen. Great stuff

Commentsd by mandy March 21st, 2009 at 10:49 pm

the alienware is just the same as the other phones If I was u i would just go out and buy something else that makes it a lot easer to talk to poeple and text on

Commentsd by Cybergrunt March 25th, 2009 at 7:13 am

Hmm it’s still vapourware so who’s to say. I like Alienware stuff generally. It looks almost good but it looks clunky and plasticy. I’d have to hold one in my hand to know for sure.

Commentsd by Sean Evans March 26th, 2009 at 2:14 am

I wanna buy that phone dude! that is sooooooo awsome! and can you call aliens on that phone? mail it to my house the one that i want is the fist one. I don’t care how mutch it cost! i would rather have that phone instead of a limo or mansion dude! i really like, love and want! alien ware is better than dell and verison! and other brands!

Commentsd by hugh jass April 15th, 2009 at 2:50 pm

listen listen every1.this is in no way what an alien phone would look like!some guy has designed this for dial a phone,if u read the bottom of the picture!and i have an alienware pc and there cool as f*#k so i would buy one.stick the iphone up your sphincter lol

I think if i whipped out that phone, it would kick all my friend’s phones’ butts

I think you who say it is “horrible” are just scared.

Coolest set up of a phone.

Commentsd by Shad May 1st, 2009 at 12:46 am

it would be cool touch screen, but i think the menus are fine (jasim).

If you mess with the menus and things like that to make them “cooler” you will make it too complicated, you want it to be fast, nice, but simple. Also you dont want to mess with the menus and what not because you will probably get more glitches as we’d seen with other phones.

Commentsd by Shad May 1st, 2009 at 12:53 am

Commentsd by Steve May 20th, 2009 at 2:01 am

It is just the front of the new Area-51 Alienware case, slapped onto a phone. It looks interesting but is too much of a direct application of Alienware’s design language.

Commentsd by Ulquiorra May 25th, 2009 at 12:43 am

Wow guys…. I think your being a bit harsh on ALienware. I mean maybe that phone is not in your interest but What the hell? Its better than DElls, and Its Pretty unique compared to other phones. Who here agrees with me?

Commentsd by kewlcoolkool May 25th, 2009 at 9:19 pm

is it a touch screen?

Commentsd by Flame June 12th, 2009 at 8:10 am

I am an advocate of alienware, but I am unsure about the new phone. One of the resons I love my laptop is because it’s unique, stylish a diffrent. I don’t mind spending the extra money for alienware, mostly you pay for what you get, and that’s including paying for the name. Also from a female prepective I think the phone is cool and diffrent I’ve seen hundreds iphones but if someone had an alienware phone I may look twice.

Commentsd by JD July 6th, 2009 at 7:53 pm
