Upon seeing the iPhone Pocket, many were reminded of the iPod sock trend and questioned the practicality of carrying a phone in such a manner. The design, featuring a singular 3D-knitted construction, raises concerns about security and ease of use.
Priced at £139.95/$149.95 for the shorter strap option and £219.95/$229.95 for the longer strap, the iPhone Pocket’s cost is comparable to that of an Apple Watch SE 3. Despite being labeled as a limited-edition release, the high price point may deter potential buyers.
For those interested, the iPhone Pocket will be available for purchase starting November 14th. The unconventional design and steep price tag have sparked mixed reactions among consumers, leaving many to question the necessity of such a product in the market.
