This iPhone case by Jimmy Fallon and J.Crew doubles as a pocket square

Jimmy Fallon and J.Crew Introduce the Pocket Dial™
You could just wear a pocket square, but that’s so 2014. To get you up to speed with the times, Tonight Show host Jimmy Fallon paired up with J.Crew to design an iPhone case that doubles as a pocket square. That’s right — now your pocket square is connected.

The pocket square comes as a clip on to the leather case, which can be used for the iPhone 6 or 6S. Just pop it on the case, put your phone in your front blazer pocket, and voilà. You’ll look so stylish that no one will ever know you’re packing an iPhone. Just make sure your blazer’s front pocket is large enough to fit the phone. In the video, Fallon’s “Pocket Dial” sinks a little too low, unlike the photos on J.Crew’s website.

In the video, Fallon jokes that it’s a good way to up your style game and keep your phone safe. He says he came up with he idea and used a hot glue gun to make the first prototype.

There are three styles to choose from: polka-dotted, gingerbread man, or white linen. The gingerbread man is undeniably festive, but the white and polka dot versions will last you through the whole year, regardless of the season.

While the nerdy accessory can be a fun gift for the holidays, the best part of this collaboration is that the proceeds from purchasing the Pocket Dial will go to the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, a Kenya-based charity that protects elephants from poaching and extinction.

You can grab the Pocket Dial from J.Crew for $48. Additional Pocket Redials, which is actually just the fabric portion, will cost you $15 each. If you’re interested, you can get the case on J. Crew’s website here.

AT&T just made it a lot easier to upgrade your phone

Do you want to upgrade your phone more than once a year? What about three times a year? Are you on AT&T? If you answered yes to those questions, then AT&T’s new “Next Up Anytime” early upgrade program is made for you. With this add-on, you’ll be able to upgrade your phone three times a year for just $10 extra every month. It will be available starting July 16.

Currently, AT&T has its “Next Up” add-on, which has been available for the past several years. This program costs $6 extra per month and lets you upgrade by trading in your existing phone after at least half of it is paid off. But the new Next Up Anytime option gives you some more flexibility.

The Nokia 3210 is the worst phone I’ve used in 2024

Where do I even start with the Nokia 3210? Not the original, which was one of the coolest phones to own back in a time when Star Wars: Episode 1 -- The Phantom Menace wasn’t even a thing, but the latest 2024 reissue that has come along to save us all from digital overload, the horror of social media, and the endless distraction that is the modern smartphone.

Except behind this facade of marketing-friendly do-goodery hides a weapon of torture, a device so foul that I’d rather sit through multiple showings of Jar Jar Binks and the gang hopelessly trying to bring back the magic of A New Hope than use it.
The Nokia 3210 really is that bad
