How would you feel if your cell phone released a fragrance—no I'm not kidding. The Sony Ericsson DoCoMo SO703i phone does just that by including a replaceable scented strip near the center hinge.
Featured on Trendhunter, the DoCoMo comes in a variety of designs as each includes a different aroma sheet which resembles that of a scratch and sniff sticker. Why would anyone want a smelly phone? Supposedly the aroma is intended to relax cell phone users while they make calls. Each scented strip is said to only last about three months, which may be a blessing in disguise in case the first scent gets more irritating than enjoyable!

ok, i can understand wanting things to smell good, but your cell phone? c'mon. the last time i wished my cell phone smelled a little better than it should was.....ummmmmmmmmmm, NEVER AGO? hahaha....nice try sony
now, if you could make my DVD PLAYER release a sweet, seductive fragrance...THEN i think we'd be in business ;D
1that phone isn't very cool looking. and i'm not all about the scented thing.
2interesting....but no thanks
3I prefer the smell of my iPhone.
4It would be cool if it sprayed out a smell whenever you received a phone call. You could customize different smells for different people.
5W-hat!
6Crazy...I don't need it, it's a cool idea, but definatly not somehting I would go out of my way to have...
I want the Hello Kitty one anyways!
sounds like a Japan-only product
7Calamari, what if it sprayed from inside your pocket? and you got a lot of calls? it'd be like putting on too much perfume. ick.
8haha you guys are too funny.. could you imagine though, all of a sudden you smell roses and you know its your mom calling?!
9Yeah that is a bit strange! Plus if ppl around you didn't like the scent they would be all "Man what is that horrible smell!"
10I don't like them.
11Ha!!! That's awesome. I didn't think of that, but your pocket or bag would stink at the end of the day getting calls.
12its a very intersting idea...
13Leave it. Doesn't interest me at all.
14did they do a study that showed that people's cell phones smelled too yucky and thought this would rectify the problem? seriously.
15WHOA. awesome.
16Um, no. Just no. Those super chemically smells are always yucky and there are plenty of people out there that are allergic to them. Don't want a pine air freshener right next to my face!
17Couldn't care less about the fragrance, but they look pretty!
18No thanks.
19Really not needed!!
20scented..how weird.
