Motorola has launched a designer inflatable chair

Comes with a free discount coupon for the razr

Published

on

Late last year, Motorola launched (or relaunched) the iconic Motorola razr flip phone. Despite the much-hyped launch, the foldable phone ultimately fell to weird design flaws soon after the launch. However, if you’re still on the fence about this particular phone, Motorola is tempting potential razr buyers with something new. Motorola has launched a designer inflatable chair.

In what essentially sounds like a buy-one-get-a-free-toaster deal, Motorola has partnered with inflatable designer brand Minnidip for an officially licensed inflatable chair. The Minnidip x razr Ch(air) — yes, that’s what it’s called — brings back a whirlwind of nostalgia for 90s kids. Available in Blush Gold, the opaque seat and backrest rests on a bed of transparent material, giving the illusion of floating. If you’re into the uber-nostalgic razr, you can get a chair that fits with your nostalgia.

What does this have to do with the Motorola razr? Two things. One, the chair has a holder made especially for the phone on the right armrest. Two, customers will get a US$ 200 coupon for the purchase of a Motorola razr after they buy the chair.

The Minnidip x razr Ch(air) retails for US$ 70 and ships starting September 21.

Now, you might think that the coupon is a big discount. However, the Motorola razr costs a whopping US$ 1,499.99. Even with the discount, you’re still shelling out big bucks for the foldable phone. If you’re still on the fence, Motorola is likely working on the razr 2, preparing for a launch very soon.

Apple Fifth Avenue or Nelson Road? New Yorkers gathered at the iconic flagship store as it transformed into a slice of AFC Richmond for a Ted Lasso lookalike contest celebrating the return of the hit Apple TV+ series.

Dozens of fans arrived in Ted’s signature look, complete with mustaches, visors, blue sweaters, and khakis. Inside the store, the AFC Richmond takeover continued with themed photo opportunities and hidden Easter eggs for longtime fans to discover.

The celebration continued across Midtown and Central Park, where brand ambassadors spread kindness with “Believe” signs, complimentary coffee and tea, a tunnel of cheering Teds for runners, and the Goldfish Zone, where visitors symbolically let go of worries by dropping paper fish into a fishbowl.

Westminster Abbey isn’t just another stop on the London tourist trail.

It’s the stage for coronations, royal weddings, and burials that span nearly a thousand years, all still playing out under the same vaulted ceilings that have been standing since before most countries had names.

Once you get past the crowds and the audio guides, a quieter version of the abbey starts to show itself: worn stone steps, poets resting a few feet from kings, light that shifts across the nave like it’s in on the performance too.

While losing track of time in Poets’ Corner (yes, me, playing amateur historian for an afternoon), I unfolded the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra and decided the abbey deserved more than a quick tourist snap.
