  • May 29 is the release date for Casetify’s Bandai Namco collaboration, which brings Tamagotchi-themed cases, charms, straps and earbuds accessories to iPhone 17 and Samsung Galaxy S26 users.
  • The lineup also includes a standalone Tamagotchi device—roughly Apple Watch-sized—with a retro screen and three buttons, letting users hatch, feed, wash and play with a digital pet.
  • Prices start at $36, while the broader range adds suitcase designs, detachable charms, stickers and a new Tamagotchi Chase Card with rarer variants.
  • The launch extends Casetify’s strategy of leaning on nostalgia and anime-style co-brands, joining collaborations such as Evangelion, Solo Leveling and Dragon Ball Z.
