Clunky, antenna-barring cell phones from Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Motorola are popping up in vintage retail stores for as much as $1,300 -- and consumers are paying. Just as vintage clothes are so coveted, vintage phones are occupying a new market. While not everyone is willing to renounce their compact, multi-functioning smartphones, there are those looking to the past to make a statement. As Trend Hunter's CEO remarks, this trend can be described as cyclical, appealing to consumers wanting to break free from the mainstream and own products boasting elements of both uniqueness and nostalgia. Consumers looking to stand out amongst others -- divergent, as Gutsche describes it -- will often look to the past to bring something back. The interview concludes with Gutsche predicting augmented reality and advanced wearable technology as the future of mobile phones.","datePublished":"2014-05-29T20:18:00Z","headline":"CNN Live: Jeremy

href='javascript:void(0);'>Share on Pinterest</a> </div><div class='tha__articleText tha__articleText--hasAt'>Chief Trend Hunter Jeremy Gutsche was recently interviewed by CNN Live's Max Foster on Skype to talk about the rise of the retro phone. Clunky, antenna-barring cell phones from Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Motorola are popping up in vintage retail stores for as much as $1,300 -- and consumers are paying. Just as vintage clothes are so coveted, vintage phones are occupying a new market.<br /> <br /> While not everyone is willing to renounce their compact, multi-functioning smartphones, there are those looking to the past to make a statement. As Trend Hunter's CEO remarks, this trend can be described as cyclical, appealing to consumers wanting to break free from the mainstream and own products boasting elements of both uniqueness and nostalgia. Consumers looking to stand out amongst others -- divergent, as Gutsche describes it -- will often look to the past to bring something back. <br /> <br /> The interview concludes with Gutsche predicting augmented reality and advanced wearable technology as the future of mobile phones.</div><div class='tpt__aSecCont'><div class='tpt__aSec'> <div class='tpt__aSecHeading'>Trend Themes</div> <div class='tpt__aSecItems'><div class='tpt__aItem'> <div class='tpt__aItemText'><b class='tpt__aItemTitle'>1.

Foster on Skype to talk about the rise of the retro phone. Clunky, antenna-barring cell phones from Nokia, Sony Ericsson and Motorola are popping up in vintage retail stores for as much as $1,300 -- and consumers are paying. Just as vintage clothes are so coveted, vintage phones are occupying a new market.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nWhile not everyone is willing to renounce their compact, multi-functioning smartphones, there are those looking to the past to make a statement. As Trend Hunter's CEO remarks, this trend can be described as cyclical, appealing to consumers wanting to break free from the mainstream and own products boasting elements of both uniqueness and nostalgia. Consumers looking to stand out amongst others -- divergent, as Gutsche describes it -- will often look to the past to bring something back. <br \/>\n<br \/>\nThe interview concludes with Gutsche predicting augmented reality and advanced wearable technology as the future of mobile phones.<\/div><div class='tpt__aSecCont'><div class='tpt__aSec'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class='tpt__aSecHeading'>Trend Themes<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class='tpt__aSecItems'><div class='tpt__aItem'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class='tpt__aItemText'><b class='tpt__aItemTitle'>1.

With the #HangUpOnIt campaign, Motorola is encouraging individuals to challenge the negativity prevalent in the world today and replace it with positive, uplifting emotions. In celebration of this campaign, the brand has sponsored a pre-party for the Met Gala. <br \/>\n<br \/>\nAt this pre-party, Motorola gifted six attendees the new iteration of its Motorola Razer phone. The phone was one of the largest landmark phones in the 2000s due to its sleek flip design and its long list of features. The 2022 version, though, is a clamshell foldable smartphone with a two-piece backplate that resembles its predecessor.

The unconventional phone also boasts two SIM cards so that there's no need to carry two separate devices for professional and personal use. <br \/>\n <br \/>\n<br \/>\nImage Credit: Cyrcle Phone<\/div><div class='tpt__aSecCont'><div class='tpt__aSec'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class='tpt__aSecHeading'>Trend Themes<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class='tpt__aSecItems'><div class='tpt__aItem'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class='tpt__aItemText'><b class='tpt__aItemTitle'>1.

The event was billed as the unveiling of \u201ca reinvented icon,\u201d with very few details provided beyond that. When I arrived at the event, large screens played several ads from 2004 for the original RAZR device, giving visitors a nostalgic look at where the phone started. <br \/>\n<br \/>\nAt the event, guests and I were lead into the venue in small groups where we saw a set-up of freezers with ice sculptures in them as we entered. They contained a variety of memorabilia from the heyday of the original RAZR, including studded belts, pink cowboy hats, and ice sculptures of people with old RAZR phones pressed to their ears. We walked through this room and looked at all the sculptures in the freezers while we could hear a heavy bass in the distance. <br \/>\n<br \/>\nOnce we passed through the next barrier, we entered an outdoor area with a DJ, hors d\u2019oeuvres, and bars with signature cocktails. Eventually, executives from Motorola US and Verizon came onstage to announce the new RAZR -- this time a foldable smartphone that is available through an exclusive partnership with Verizon that will be available to consumers within the United States. So far, only a US launch has been announced in January 2020, with no word as to when the rest of the world could see it. After the announcement, Diplo came onstage to perform a set for all the attendees. <br \/>\n<br \/>\nFollowing the announcement and surprise performance, Motorola opened a new room for all the attendees to try its new device out. Some attendees even brought their old RAZR models for comparisons. I got to play with the phone and try it out, and unlike some of the other foldables currently on the market, the RAZR lays flat when unfolded with no crease and functions like any other smartphone. The attendant there also showed me that you could use the classic Motorola double twist feature to open the camera, even when closed, which means you can use the 16MP back camera to take selfies using the smaller screen on the outside of the phone instead of the 5MP front camera the phone features when opened. <br \/>\n<br \/>\nI also learned about how the plastic screen opened differently than the other foldables available and was flush when closed into the iconic RAZR clamshell. On the outside screen, I learned how you can respond to messages with voice commands and even have a video call without even opening the phone. The signature lip on the bottom of the RAZR still exists, but like everything else about the phone, with new technology -- this time in the form of a fingerprint sensor. <br \/>\n<br \/>\nOverall, I had an amazing time at Motorola's RAZR launch in Los Angeles and felt the phone was a new and innovative take on an iconic device.<\/div><div class='tpt__aSecCont'><div class='tpt__aSec'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class='tpt__aSecHeading'>Trend Themes<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class='tpt__aSecItems'><div class='tpt__aItem'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class='tpt__aItemText'><b class='tpt__aItemTitle'>1.

The duo nod to the past for inspiration, creating designs that are reminiscent of the early 2000s. The capsule full of iPhone accessories is designed with trends and notable emblems from the era. <br \/>\n<br \/>\nThe cases are made to replicate the look of flip phones, the Blackberry messenger apps, the iconic iPod displays, and even MP3 players. Along with the wide range of cases, the duo also launches other accessories of the same theme. This includes AirPod cases, and showcases wireless charging pads. The highly anticipated collection is now live and has a wait list to sign up for before it officially drops on September 28th.<br \/>\n<br \/>\nImage Credit: CASETiFY<\/div><div class='tpt__aSecCont'><div class='tpt__aSec'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class='tpt__aSecHeading'>Trend Themes<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class='tpt__aSecItems'><div class='tpt__aItem'>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class='tpt__aItemText'><b class='tpt__aItemTitle'>1.
