Japan is getting Star Wars Mobile phones, and we’re all jealous

SoftBank, the leading Japanese carrier, is marking the release of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story by launching Star Ware Mobile phones.

Made by Sharp, there are two variants of the Star Wars Mobile phones allowing you to choose your allegiance with the Dark Side or the Light Side.

While the smartphones run Android 6.0 Marshmallow, they are heavily skinned around the Star Wars theme. Also, there are live wallpapers that make the phone look like an X-Wing or TIE fighter cockpit and of course, there are Star Wars emojis and ringtones.
