OS 8: Our Vision
Go to Youtube to Watch The Video!

I have been working on my vision of OS 8. In my view, OS 8 will be much more consistent in terms of design, it will have a more simple and modern look with less menus in menus. New design elements will be added to make navigation easier and better.
Please tell me if you like the design, also what else would you add or change from the current version.
If you want you can share this on Facebook, and Twitter.
Please do not copy any ideas, concepts or apps from what has been displayed here. Contact me first.

I like your style bud. Keep it up, maybe RIM will call on you one
day for your fresh thoughts to complement theirs.Judge most Tech Articles by the comments it received, not by what the author is saying! Gets to the truth every time! - 06-20-2011, 09:33 PM #3

That is just wonderful. Can we get RIM to build IR into the phone. That would be sweet (yeah, I know of the aftermarket products for it, they suck)
Also, I would like OS8 to be fully location aware/baked into the OS.
Keep up the good work.People say, it's not the size of the boat, it's the motion of the ocean that counts....

Nice work Bongs! RIM should hire you because this would add a lot. We just need to see it in motion. It has some Android touches too. But those are the parts of Android I appreciate.

If I were RIM I would hire you, Hands down! This should have been OS 7. It would have been worth the wait if it was!

This is why RIM is failing, a 16 year old with no college degree of any kind can design a far better UI then rim. By the way very nice dude, still has a Blackberry feel to it so i wouldn't say redesigned from the scratch, well you did say remastered so i guess thats what it is. but certainly is what rim needs. My only comment is that the reflections of the album art and stuff, need to be more faded, they clash together with actual art. and same with the play button and stuff.
Edit: feels like android if it was made by RIM

Out of the mouth of babes.... Well done dude! That is a slick interpretation. Now all we need to do is replace the burnt out os design teams up in waterloo, or wherever they're hiding, with your free thinking mind and we just might be able to save RIM after all.

Would this be done on the elusive QNX phone?
Because you mention swiping up but also a BB button.

Wow looks amazing indeed. Well done kid, im very impressed. I hope this will be RIM's next OS design for OS8

Nice, keep up the great work. You have a very promising future.

You got some serious talent for being 16.
- 06-21-2011, 11:54 AM #23
I love the top bar with the time and notifications. I like that it was consistently at the top no matter what app you were in, which is something that I have been saying I wanted (to DeRusset's [sorry if i spelled that wrong, I couldn't remember off the top of my head.] dismay
) The layout looks smooth and sexy.
Amazing. I wish I had your talents!!Last edited by RollingRock1988; 06-21-2011 at 01:01 PM.
