Apple has just unveiled its latest innovation: the iPhone Pocket. Priced at $230, this phone strap is already sparking debates. The idea behind it? To give users an extra pocket for their daily essentials. It's designed to be worn on the body, attached to bags, or held in hand. There are two styles: a shorter strap with eight color options at $149. 95 and a longer version with three colors at $229. 95. The iPhone Pocket is a collaboration with Japanese fashion designer Issey Miyake. It's made from a mix of nylon, polyester, and polyurethane. The design is meant to be simple, allowing users to personalize their look. Apple says it's all about the \"joy of wearing iPhone in your own way. \" Starting November 14, the iPhone Pocket will hit select Apple stores and the Apple website in several countries. But not everyone is impressed. Critics are calling it an overpriced accessory. Some even compared it to the lime green mankini from the Borat movies. Others, however, see it as a step towards smart clothing. So, is the iPhone Pocket worth the money? That depends on who you ask. Some see it as a fashion statement, while others think it's just a fancy sock for your phone. One thing's for sure: Apple is pushing the boundaries of wearable tech.
