Shiny, gold 'Buddha phone' comes with a customizable animated altar~


The Odin 99, also known as the "Buddha phone" for pretty obvious reasons, is an altar-away-from-altar for more material Buddhists. The flashy gold-colored phone features a lotus-leaf emblazoned button that, once pressed, will load the phone's customizable, animated Buddhist altar. We're talking a full-service shrine, where you can burn some digital incense (smell not included), put down offerings or play some soothing tunes to help you meditate. Really, if they rebranded this thing a relaxation phone, maybe it'd find a larger market than China, where the Odin 99 is currently available.

The entire package furthers those Buddhist "feel good" vibes, too. It includes an engraved metal charm — which would be much cooler if it was the battery — and a second battery as a gift. So for China, there's the Odin 99. For the rest of us, there's a slew of buddha approved iphone apps~
