This would be a smartphone designed specifically for smokers. It would have a gas-fueled cigarette lighter built into it, to light up cigarettes. The lighter would be positioned so that the user could even light up while speaking on the phone, and it would be equipped with the standard safety features to prevent accidental triggering. The fuel tank from the lighter could also be used by a tiny fuel cell to power the smartphone.

Instead of keeping 2 devices in your pocket, you now only have to keep one.

       As far as I'm aware, cigarette lighters and mobile phones can still be carried onto flights in the free world.

       This would be better suited towards the range of ever larger 'phablets'. No matter how big these devices get they would be lighter.

       And then someone hacks your phone to trigger the lighter, instead of a ring-tone, when someone calls....
