HUAWEI and KFC made a smartphone - yes, really
How big of a KFC fan are you? A big enough fan that you’d hand over more than a hundred dollars for a KFC-branded smartphone? I see a lot of you shaking your head yes. If you’re one of those people, we have some great news — KFC has partnered with HUAWEI to release a limited edition smartphone to commemorate the restaurant’s 30-year anniversary in China.
This nameless HUAWEI smartphone comes with a 5-inch screen, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 processor, 3 GB of RAM, 32 GB of storage, with microSD expansion up to 128 GB. There’s also a 3,020 mAh battery and a rear-mounted fingerprint sensor. Oh, and it has a Colonel Sanders logo on the back.
Specs-wise, the KFC phone compares pretty well to Motorola’s Moto E4:

Processor | KFC phone Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 | Moto E4 Qualcomm Snapdragon 425 |

Battery | KFC phone 3,020 mAh | Moto E4 2,800 mAh |

However, the Moto E4 doesn’t come with a pre-installed KFC-branded music app. The app, available exclusively on this KFC phone, allows you to create and share playlists while visiting your favorite KFC location. Check out the video below to see it in action.
KFC and HUAWEI are only releasing 5,000 of these bad boys, which will be available for 1,099 yuan (~$162 USD).
