Frequent leakster Mukul Sharma has shared image of what he calls a Cola Phone, with the soft drink branding taking over half of the device’s back. He also claims on Twitter that the soft drink brand is “collaborating with a smartphone brand” for this project, but stops short of identifying the phone maker in question. But he does say that it will be launching in this quarter in India. Which would be quite the departure from the KFC and Pepsi phones, as they were exclusive to China.
— Mukul Sharma (@stufflistings) January 24, 2023 For what it’s worth, for fans of the colour red, this Coca-Cola phone is quite the looker. It also helps that the brand itself is not in white like you’d usually find on cans or bottles of the drink. That being said, it’s probably easier, and likely cheaper too, to get a custom case with a similar look and plop it onto your existing phone. As for what phone this actually is, or which phone maker Coca-Cola is partnering up for this stunt, it’s anyone’s guess, really. Phones have been looking so ubiquitous now that it any device with two cameras at the back could pass for it. But if this device is really getting announced within this quarter as Mukul Sharma claims, then it probably won’t be too long before we find out for sure. Can’t really have the same optimism for availability though. (Source: Mukul Sharma / Twitter)
