It's definitely a unique feature (don't call it a gimmick), using microencapsulation technology which traps fragrance molecules within microscopic capsules. The capsules are infused into the phone's fake leather back, and they gradually release a...

But when this is implemented, you'll have the option to prevent other people's phones from doing that, as seen in the screenshot above. This is the same...
