Google’s Project Ara will come in three sizes

Some people tend to find the iPhone too small for their usage, while others consider phablets an overkill. As such, when you’re building your own smartphone, the first thing you’d want is to get the size right. Google has a fair understanding of that it seems. As such, it will allow users to pick the size for their custom smartphone that they find the most apt on the Project Ara smartphone.

The video shows how different parts of the phone, including the processor and the camera module will be glued together by an electropermanent magnet, which can then be locked or unlocked by an app that sends bursts of voltage. from the sizes that are shown in the video, it seems like the phablet module will be able to hold upto 9 components, while the medium sized module (one in the image) will house 8. The smallest of them will hold 6 components together. The smallest module is expected to start selling at $50.
Make a very customizable phone, check. Make it look good, well, that remains to be seen. We’ll know more on it on April 15th at Google’s first Ara Developer conference.
