We’ve got an interesting device to have a look at today, the Cigarette Lighter Phone, with the SB6309 model name. The handset is as basic as it sounds: a phone with a cigarette lighter built in. This mechanism is placed under a protective cover that reveals the glowing square that will light up your vice.

The pics you see are renders of the phone and it turns out that the site of the handset is filled with malware, so this look more like an anti smoking campaign than a real device. Hmm, you get malware if you try to buy the phone and lung “malware” if you do get it and light up a cigarette. Quit smoking!
