Vaporcade Jupiter IO 3: A Smartphone You Can Smoke

If you think all smartphones in the market are now practically the same, you’ve probably never seen Jupiter IO 3 by Vaporcade. This isn’t just like other phones, you can actually smoke this phone… literally. Vaporcade Jupiter IO 3 smartphone also doubles as a vape.

We first heard about this device late last year, but Ben Popper from the Verge actually smoked one in his Hotel room at the recently concluded CES 2016. In the video, we saw a prototype of the phone running Android Kitkat with the vape at the top. While this may not really look practical to some people, it’s a phone I’m sure a lot of people would want all for the “swag.”

Vaporcade Jupiter IO 3 is a 3G phone that costs $299 USD but the company behind it is working on Jupiter IO 4, a 4G version that will cost $499 USD. The device runs on two batteries, one for the vape and the other for the smartphone. The phone looks like a regular phone until you attach the liquid cartridge and the mouthpiece. This costs $15 and comes in different flavors. The company says you can get as much as 800 puffs from a single cartridge.

As for the device specifications, very little is known about this highPhone except for the screen size which is 5.3-inches. As for your health concern, Vaporcade claims the device is already FCC approved.
