Samsung Releases Overpriced "Mobile Phone" Jeans to Sell Overpriced Mobile Phone

After failing to sell their latest silly idea of phones that you can bend Samsung tried dropping the price.

But people still weren't interested in being ripped off for a phone that you can bend (sorry, I'm still not over the stupidity of a phone that you can bend). Apparently that price was $1500 for a Z Flip 3. Android fans were suspiciously quiet and Apple fans were too busy having a life to say anything though.

Enter the next thing for people with more money than sense: the Z Flip jeans! These Limited Edition jeans feature a square pocket that will hold the Z Flip 3.

They also cost $1500 :D

PR waffle:

"Who needs big pockets? They take up too much space, they don't look stylish, and the latest phones slip and slide inside them. Redesigned so that they exclusively fit the Galaxy Z Flip3, the Z Flip Pocket Denim jeans make big pockets a thing of the past."

Wasn't sure whether to put this is mobile or fashion forums so I chose general.

  • These jeans are just to get people talking, just like when Apple released A$1,699.00 mac pro stand.
