Imagine how this would revolutionize showers and baths! I can just already imagine the hordes of teenagers planning to Snapchat or go on Facebook while in the shower, soap bubbles and all.

But the truth is, the surface of your smartphone may contain way, way more bacteria than you think, and a Japanese firm claims to hold the solution: they’re releasing the world’s first smartphone that you can wash with soap and water!
Now, waterproof smartphones is not a new concept, but Japanese company KDDI insists that their product is the ONLY phone that can withstand soap! Think of all the bubble baths you’ll see on Snapchat.
This soap-proof phone, called the “Digno rafre”, will be unveiled in stores in Japan next week. A worldwide release has yet to be announced… but is totally expected.
Who wants to have a washable smartphone?? Will YOU use it in the shower too?
