Dainty Water-Proof Phones

The Honey Bee Softbank 101K is Simply Irresistibly Cute

— October 4, 2011 — Tech
Every day there is a new technological gadget unveiled; however, the new water-proof phone called Honey Bee SoftBank 101K stands out as it is simple, adorable and very convenient for rainy weather. The Japanese company Kyocera created this type of phone with active teenagers and young adults in mind.

The series' look seems to be inspired by a toy cell phone because of its bright colors like pink, yellow and blue as well as its sweet name. This technological device comes in different shapes, has a 3.5-inch display, a 2 MP camera, a 5 MP CMOS censor with autofocus, and will be operated by SoftBank Mobile.

The Honey Bee SoftBank 101K sports a design targeted towards an Asian public, where there is a wider selection of colorful phones and styles. However, I can't deny the fact that this phone is certainly awesome because of its design and water-proof quality.
