Just in time for the summer heat, Tesco Mobile recently launched a new holiday accessory that will help you use your phone in any weather condition -- the Tesco Mobile Parasol. The new gadget, as its name suggests, is a mini attachable mobile phone umbrella that lets you view your phone in rain or shine.
Rachel Swift, Tesco Mobile Chief Customer Officer, said: "As families prepare to enjoy themselves at home or abroad this summer, we know that there’s always a desire to stay connected. Everyone can relate to the difficulties we face when trying to read our phone on the beach. That’s why we’ve created a little something to help you take the perfect beach selfie and scroll aimlessly while allowing our customers to continue roaming in Europe and beyond at no extra cost."
The Tesco Mobile Parasol is compatible with iPhone and Samsung and is available from 21 July – 4 August exclusively on the Tesco Mobile website.
