I saw this on a twitter post and wondered if this is a real product.

I have seen see-through cellphones before, but this is something extraordinary.

It's a piece of acrylic with printing on it. It isn't a phone. Certain things that all phone have aren't possible to make transparent. For example, speakers have magnets. Magnets are made of metal. Metal isn't transparent. Same with silicon semiconductors, wires, etc.
