An interesting question - how to make a phone out of paper? Gadgets have long been part of our lives, because they are so convenient and vital. Many people spend incredible amounts of money in pursuit of new products. Of course, you want to own a fashionable iPhone 6, but not everyone can afford such a purchase. We have found an interesting option for you that will suit both adults and the younger generation. Let's see how to make a phone out of paper, and what we need to have for this.
Why might we need such a toy - a paper phone? First of all, this phone mockup will be useful for parents with small children. They know that young children always show interest in the things their parents use. The child really wants to play with such a beautiful toy. But under no circumstances should you give such an expensive iPhone 6 to a child; it could all end too sadly for the phone. Give your child such a toy, and he will, looking at you, demonstrate an “adult” conversation and will not reach for your gadget.
This model, if carefully glued together, will be very similar to a real iPhone 6. This thing can be played on friends, family, acquaintances and strangers. You can come up with many funny situations and pranks.
What do we need to make a good model that is similar to the original? Of course it's a good template. Download one of our templates or search for similar templates online. Our template is good because it has sides and ears. That is, it should turn out good copy iPhone 6.
Print one of the templates on a color printer. It is better to take glossy paper, but if this is not available, a regular sheet will do.
To work you will need:
- iPhone 6 template printed on a piece of paper.
- Scissors.
- Stationery knife.
- Ruler.
- Pencil.
- PVA glue or any other.
- Thick cardboard.
- Shoe box lid.
Print out the iPhone 6 template and carefully cut it out with scissors. You need to cut carefully and clearly along the lines.
We have a phone template with sides and ears; the places where the slots will be are indicated on the ears. The slots are needed to fasten the side parts of the iPhone 6.
Next, take a utility knife and make slits in the designated fastening areas. This is convenient to do using a ruler. The cut line will be clear and even. In the future, the ears will fit into the slots and all the sides will assemble as needed.
Fold the template along the fold lines. Now we can already see the iPhone body. Next, take cardboard, it should not be too thick, about 6-7 mm. Place the template on cardboard and trace the front part of the iPhone 6 with a pencil. Cut out the blank along the drawn line. This is how the first blank turned out. Round off sharp corners with scissors.
We glue two blanks together with any glue and place this blank inside the template.
All we have to do is seal all the edges of our phone. We insert the ears into the slots of the template and glue them inside. Press with your fingers and hold for a while so that the glue holds well. So your lovely paper phone is ready.
Another version of the master class, but without printing the template:
All phone manufacturers want their gadgets to be thinner and sleeker than their competitors. Soon phones will be so thin that they can be rolled into a tube or folded like origami. For example, like this version of Origami Phone, which is not an origami phone.
Although this origami phone is made of thin plastic, you can try making this phone out of paper. To do this, you just need to transfer the drawing to the cardboard, cut out this template and cut out another part - the central part with two folds. We fold the phone along the inner dotted lines so that it takes the shape of a tube and glue the central part into the middle. The result is a children's origami phone.
Origami phone stand
This phone stand can be quickly made from a small piece of cardboard. All you need is a ruler and a pencil.

There's nothing more satisfying than printing the iPhone photos you took and seeing them on your wall as artwork! But how to print photos from iPhone? How big can they be printed? And what quality will you get? In this article, you will learn everything you need to know about printing photos from your iPhone - from small photo cards to beautiful photo books and large canvases. You will also find out how large you can print photos, depending on the iPhone models, which you use for creativity.
How to Print Photos from iPhone
The first question you probably ask when printing photos from your iPhone is, “How big can I print a photo?”
It all depends on the quality you want to achieve, such as excellent, good or average quality. The table below shows the maximum photo sizes that can be printed using these quality standards.
Dependence of the size of the printed photo on the iPhone model
Why? Because digital photography consists of millions of tiny pixels (individual colored squares that make up a complete image). As you can see, the higher the print quality of a photo, the smaller it should be. And the larger the photo print size, the worse the image quality will be.
As the print size increases, the pixel size also increases. When the pixels become too large, the image will appear in pixels. Instead of a smooth and crisp image, it will appear blurry because the square pixels are too large.
Thus, the smaller you print a photo, the sharper and better quality it will look. The larger the photo size, the more quality loss you have to accept.
