Honor presents a concept smartphone you can wear as a handbag

At the IFA technology show in Berlin, Chinese smartphone manufacturer Honor showcased its latest concept, the Honor V Purse, a smartphone designed to be worn like a handbag.

A standout feature of this concept are customizable faces that can seamlessly transition into functional applications. For example, a customizable bag design could include a wristband with charms, one of which would serve as a camera app icon when pressed.

While the concept is certainly intriguing, questions remain about its practicality, as carrying an expensive device in plain sight comes with risks, including the possibility of damage.

Although not intended for sale, this innovative concept demonstrates Honor's ambition to compete with industry giants like Samsung and Apple in the global smartphone market.
