Make your own mobile handset
    2018-10-31  08:53    Shenzhen Daily

If you’ve ever wondered what’s really inside your mobile phone, a new DIY kit could help you out.

Called “MakerPhone,” the US$89 kit gives you everything you need to make a mobile.

Croatian tech startup* CircuitMess says the phone is perfect for anyone over the age of 11.

Although build time will vary according to skill levels, CircuitMess says the phone should take about seven hours to build.

“MakerPhone will take you from learning how to wield a soldering iron through assembling your very own fully functional mobile phone all the way to coding your very own app or game for your very own DIY mobile phone.”

Purchasers will get all the parts and tutorials they need. They will also learn how to code, using Scratch, MicroPython and Arduino IDE (which is based on C/C++).

However, the resulting phone doesn’t have a touchscreen, instead using a physical numeric keypad. But users will still be able to make calls, send texts, play basic games and listen to music.(SD-Agencies)
