If leaks are to be believed, Sony’s experiments in pushing the boundaries of camera design are taking an unexpected turn. Engadget notes that “several Chinese female influencers and models” have been showing off a camera shaped like a bottle of perfume with a large flippable lens on top, using it to take selfies. An announcement should be coming on August 22nd, according to a teaser on Sony’s Chinese website.

It’s no secret that girls in China are obsessed with taking selfies, but there’s also a local trend of slapping a Chanel perfume bottle case onto their phones. No, we don’t understand, either. Nevertheless, Sony is seizing this opportunity by releasing a new Cyber-shot camera that not only looks like a perfume bottle, but its big lens — encased in a clear brick with a gold accent — can also be flipped around to suit your needs. While it seems that Sony’s seeded this bizarre device to several Chinese female influencers and models, they’re remaining tight-lipped about the specs, but all will be revealed in China on August 22nd.
