This boring phone is useless, but also amazing

This is the Boring Phone, and they call it that because it has no features.


It doesn't have maps, or an internet connection, or WiFi, or anything. Not even text messages.


You can use it to call people, or play games, and apparently it has 20 hours of call time.


Sure.


The Boring Phone is made by Heineken, yeah, the beer brand, Bodega, which is like a streetwear brand and Human Mobile Devices (HMD), a tech company.


It looks cool, but it's a weird idea.


And there's more. Production is apparently limited to 5,000 units, and you can't buy one. It is apparently only available through giveaways. What does that mean? I don't know. What giveaways? I don't know.


But I kinda want one.
