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.












Added new Keyboard

I like your style bud. Keep it up, maybe RIM will call on you one
day for your fresh thoughts to complement theirs.

[Shao128]

Very nice job. Too bad we can't do all that through a theme...

[EdwardBlackberryHands]

Wow...you are just 16??? Thats great and probably the best looking OS I have seen for BB. Nice Job

[tkwolf]

looks amazing! and you're just 16? cheers! and i like the idea of the bbm widget! wish there was an app for that right now...or is there?

[s7khan]

Nice mix of Android and BB. I like it a lot, much more then BB6 on my Torch.

[mountainman]

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.

[blue81to]

I hope os 8 gets angry birds. I think it would increase their market share if it did.

[UrbanGlowCam]

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.

[drakesaliasonline]

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

wow, mad props to you! that's amazing! I looked at the image without reading what you wrote first and thought it was genuine from RIM!

you could have a future in this, kid

[SCrid2000]

looks a lot like my Nook Color

Very nice work indeed kid, I tell you something, you have talent, nice integration of the cool features of android and the classic blackberry feel.

[esbuenodun]

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.

[acrogenesis]

well done it looks amazing!

[luqman24]

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

[mjs416]

Good job kid.

[webadpro]

Well done Bongs.

I really like this new layout. I like that new sliding features in Videos/camera and audio.

[middbrew]

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

[Bizarre]

You got some serious talent for being 16.

[rollingrock1988]

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!!

[CoreyGmaN]

Nice work!

[ethylove]

that looks AWESOME! if only....
