Kyocera is not a big name in the smartphone world, but they are now trying to make an impact in the Japanese smartphone market with its new $460 USD (¥57,000) flagship that you can actually wash with soap.
Dubbed Digno Rafre, the new phone will be the world’s first phone that can be washed using foam soap. Apparently, the Digno is also hot water resistant at 43°.
In addition to the cool soap bubble action, the Digno Rafre also comes packed with a 5-inch display, 2GB of RAM, 16GB storage, a 13MP camera, and Android 5.1 Lollipop. The device will head out exclusively in Japan in pink, white and blue color options.

My mom lost 2 smartphones after dropping one in the sink and one in the toilet. I think I’m gonna have to find one of these for her.
Check out the video to see the phone in action.
