BYB Balance is a concept of a luxury cellphone which is made from titanium and stainless steel. The handset has a slider form factor and comes with a pair of touchscreen displays inside that are protected when closed.
Designer Bence Bogar dreams of more than electric sheep. His BYB Balance Cell Phone is one dreamy concoction of luxury and smart phone, with everything you ever wanted.
