Living in the UK has its share of bonuses. You get the world’s best fish and chips, and a government-sponsored health plan. As if that’s not enough, you can very well purchase one of the lightest mobile phones in circulation – the Modu 1.
The phone, built even smaller than credit cards, can handily fit inside your shirt’s front pocket. Its size, along with its array of feature-based jackets, makes it a novelty.
Jackets and Jackets of Fun
The Modu 1’s features not only come from its rather simplistic interface, you can also fit it with jackets that carry bonuses, such as a photo frame, a camera with decent resolution and even a pedometer. As for the default features, it comes with text messaging, a music player and – of course – the ability to make phone calls.
To Bare or not to Bare?
The Modu 1, in the nude, is mercifully cheaper than other mobile phones on the market, tagged at about £130. This is a bargain for all minimalists, who are readily satisfied as long as they can send SMS messages and make phone calls.
Purchasing a good amount of jackets, however, makes the phone more expensive than its “more complete” counterparts. Techies will probably choose an enhanced smartphone over this model, for practical reasons.
