What do you get when you cross a robot and a smartphone? You get RoboHon

(Before It's News)

Sharp has made some pretty unique smartphones in its time in the smartphone industry – the Aquos range and their bezel-less displays are arguably some of the most unique devices around. Their latest smartphone – if you can even call it that – is something even a little more left field than that. Meet RoboHon, or “Robot Phone”, the combination of a smartphone and a robot, and what an adorable robot at that. With RoboHon, you’ll be able to place calls like a normal phone, but thanks to features like a projector, you’ll be able to project photos and maps onto other surfaces.

The RoboHon also has a 2-inch touchscreen on its back which lets you interact with its Android-based operating system, but Sharp says that you’ll mostly be interacting with the RoboHon via speech. Along with the more novel features, the RoboHon also has more normal features like a camera and LTE connectivity, however despite this, the RoboHon will likely never be more than a novelty product – oh, by the way, did we mention it can dance?

It’s doubtful the RoboHon will be sold outside of Japan, and no pricing has been announced, but we can’t help but feel a faint sense of disappointment. What do you think about RoboHon?
