Motorola’s April Fool’s effort gives birth to the Moto Selfie Stick

If you had to name the biggest (and perhaps unfortunate) trend in the tech world in the last 12 months, you’d probably have to say it was the selfie stick. Despite what side of the fence you are on, it’s hard to admit how big the seemingly simple accessory has become, so big that Motorola decided its April Fool’s joke needed to include it in the form of its own Moto Selfie Stick. Motorola has today released an ad showing off its creation, which is almost brilliantly satirical by accident with oneliners like “there’s no such thing as too much quality when it comes to the selfie stick” and “a selfie is only as good as its stick”. Check out the ad below:

I almost want a selfie stick like that now.

April Fool’s season is just warming up, with a couple of companies getting in early as some countries start the festivities early, like OnePlus announcing their joke, the OnePlus DR-1 drone, which you can actually buy. Stay tuned for more pranks and trolls as the day develops.
