Concept: Threads Phone, the iPod dedicated to social networks

At a time when social networks are the most used applications on smartphones (or even exclusively so, for some), the Threads Phone concept by designer NARZ takes it a step further by imagining a device solely dedicated to Instagram, TikTok, Threads, Facebook, X, and others. A smartphone reduced to purely social functions. Quite the opposite of a digital detox, then, for a device that exploits the ease of mechanical navigation of the iPod to scroll, comment, and "like" even faster on social networks. The result is a kind of iPod, with a control wheel for navigation and a few buttons dedicated to the most frequent actions, such as reposting, liking, and commenting. The screen remains touch-sensitive, however, so that you can use a touch keyboard and type an angry (or not) comment.
