Collection items are produced in limited-edition quantities, so when they sell out, they're gone, with KFC adding that "the fried chicken faithful are encouraged to act fast and then keep an eye out for the next collection to be released".

Launched in tribute to KFC's thirty-year milestone in China, the commemorative version of the bright red KFC Huawei 7 Plus smartphone came complete with a logo of Colonel Sanders and plenty of pre-installed freebies. The phone also provided access to K-music - KFC's new jukebox function available on the KFC app, trade magazine Campaign Asia said. But now, the global food chain is going to introduce you to the most unbelievable object in its menu.

Limited edition phone to cost $162.

Available for sale at the KFC mobile app or the country's flagship Tmall store, it is priced at US$161.

According to a report in The Verge on Thursday, the "KFC" phone will feature 5-inch display and will be powered by a Snapdragon 425 processor coupled with 3GB RAM and 32GB of storage.

There's even a fingerprint scanner on the back right above the laser engraved image of the Colonel's head.
