I'm not sure how to feel about Honor's purse phone design

Nowadays it seems like every smartphone brand is hopping on the foldable phone bandwagon, but we were yet to see one that truly combines the worlds of fashion and function, until now. Tech brand Honor has unveiled the Honor V Purse, a foldable phone that can be worn like a handbag (as long as you don't intend on carrying anything else), complete with interchangeable straps and dual display screens.

Making its grand debut at IFA 2023, the foldable phone bag (or is it a bag phone?) is still in its conceptual phase, but it's certainly unique alongside its competitors in the folding phone world. (If you're after your own foldable phone, check out this guide for the best flip phones).
