Despite the different offerings, smartphones have really become the “bag” for many people. With the help of apps like Google Wallet, Samsung Wallet and Apple Pay, many devices offer close payment features using NFC.
When will the Honor V Purse be released?
Although it is an interesting concept, it does not seem possible for the Chinese brand to officially launch the smartphone / bag.. First of all, there is no information about whether there is a demand from consumers that will attract the attention of the curious offer of the phone.
Besides, The cost of such a device is expected to be extremely high and at the same time to be eye-catching in any environment. Something that should not please the public who prefer to have more discreet devices for walking down the street.
Finally, There is a very obvious technical issue in the design of the Honor V Bag. Because the flexible screen bends outward, there is a very high risk of the device falling and breaking the screen while hanging.
