There’s even a “Hey Sidekicks” voice assistant, which features the soothing voice of T-Mobile’s own CEO, John Legere.Īmong some other features, the Smartshoephone is entirely fictional as this is T-Mobile’s April Fool’s day joke. The T-Mobile sidekicks also have a display that takes up the entire bottom of the sole of one shoe while the other features “Sole speakers” and retractable Smart Laces that double as earbuds. The kicks will also light up when you receive an incoming call and the lights will flash like the Sidekick 3’s scroll ball did. Share your contact information quickly by tapping toes with another Sidekicks owner. T-Mobile’s Smartshoephone features a flip-out screen like the Sidekick, only it pops out of the side of the sole.

Seeing really is believing with the new T-Mobile Sidekick. As fun as they are functional, T-Mobile Sidekicks are fully tricked out for speed on the fastest LTE network ever and optimized for unlimited data with T-Mobile ONE, of course. Today, T-Mobile introduces the world’s first Smartshoephone™: T-Mobile Sidekicks. It was an iconic smartphone that had several celebrity endorsements, a screen that flipped out in a really cool 180-degree motion, and its operating system would eventually evolve into what we know today as Android. The T-Mobile Sidekick is getting reincarnated in the carrier’s latest announcement.
