Samsung Armani P520

Samsung and Armani have teamed up for the very first time to strike the fashion-phone market and they’ve succeeded if you ask me- with style. The SGH-P520 Samsung Armani phone will sport an array of features and specs that easily place it above the LG Prada and Apple iPhone.

The P520 is a triband GSM with EDGE phone, measuring at 88 x 54 x 8.9mm. It boasts a 262k colour QVGA touchscreen, a 3-megapixel camera with video recording, microSD card slot, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. Not bad at all...

As always, fashion comes at a price with the Samsung Armani P520 being roughly 400 euros for the lucky europeans. That’s about $600, which isn’t exactly a bargain. In fact, calling it a pricey phone for its specs would be a definite understatement.

“The company is going to make a new category called ‘IT luxury products’ jointly with Armani. The Armani phone will be launched in Europe in October and we plan to expand the brand to other businesses as well.”
