SVEDKA Vodka wants to take you back to the 2000's with a special Flip Phone that will only cost you $5. Dubbed the SVEDPHONE, this is the kind of phone you used to see over 20 years ago, where the only thing you could do with it was call and text people, no apps, no social media, no doomscrolling, no 27 notifications that clog up the home screen. Just a simple phone in a powder blue case that you used to communicate with others, which some people could probably use these days. With the phone comes a shooter bottle of their vodka, so that when you're done making calls and texts, you have some spirits to enjoy, not doing smartphone things. The company is selling a limited number of these on their website, and we have more details about them from the company for you here.

Go Back To The Early 2000's With The SVEDPHONE
Tapping into Gen Z's fascination with both AI and Y2K-era tech, from digital cameras to flip phones, the device brings a piece of early-2000s nightlife back just in time for summer. Fembot-approved, the limited-edition device blends early aughts nostalgia with sleek design style and comes with just two features: call and text. No apps. No social feeds. No notifications. Just the essentials for coordinating the night.
The SVEDPHONE marks the next evolution of SVEDKA's mission to reboot human connection. After the Fembot's debut late last year picking up the tabs and encouraging consumers to trade screen time for IRL connection, and her Super Bowl moment in "Shake Your Bots Off," she is now offering a physical solution to help humans live in the moment. With only call and text capabilities, SVEDPHONES strip away endless scrolling and digital noise and challenge humans to pick up the phone, call their friends and make plans for this weekend.

SVEDKA on Digital Burnout
"Summer is when people want to be present, with friends, with music, with the moment," said David Binder, Senior Brand Director at SVEDKA. "At the same time, there's a growing conversation around digital burnout. The SVEDPHONE is our playful take on both, proof that sometimes the most disruptive technology is actually less technology. The SVEDPHONE is not anti-tech – it's pro-socialization and connection. From festival fields to rooftop parties, SVEDPHONE transforms real-world moments into playful, shareable experiences, eliminating the pressure to check your notifications every few minutes."
