O2 reveals World’s first wearable tech nail

Mobile giant O2 has partnered with inventor Sean Miles and beauty brand Nails Inc to create the world’s first wearable tech nail. The new nail extension features an embedded miniature Bluetooth chip that can be paired with your smartphone. With the press of a button, you’ll be able to answer a call, play a song or redial the last dialled number. The Mobile Nail will be customisable with various nail art designs available with a range of manicures exclusively designed by Nails Inc.

According to O2’s survey results, consumers are looking forward to body augments with 66% believing advances in technology will make life easier and 56% looking forward to augmenting and adapting their bodies, including implantation. The prototype trial took place at the Nails Inc bar in Harvey Nichols, London, up until the 24th of December 2017, however it’s unclear when the new technology will be officially released on the market.
