Lamborghini joins the luxury Android market with its new smartphones, made of gold and crocodile skin
Those that can afford it find ways to stand out from the crowd. Many of us can purchase the best smartphones in the market, but can we pocket out $2,750 for a phone made of gold and crocodile skin? Lamborghini is sure that some of you can and has decided to manufacture luxurious Android smartphones and tablets running at that price-point.
These devices are the Lamborghini TL700 (smartphone) and the Lamborghini L2800 (tablet). And just like its competition (Tag Heuer being the most popular), the specs of the device are not even close to being considered high-end.
Lamborghini TL700 – $2750
- Android 2.3
- 3.7 inch WVGA sapphire crystal display
- Qualcomm processor of unknown speed
- 5MP rear camera
- VGA front-facing camera
- 4GB of internal memory
- 1,400 mAh battery
Lamborghini L2800 – $2290
- Android 2.3
- 9.7 inch, 1024 x 768 pixels sapphire display
- 1.2 GHz Qualcomm processor (probably single core)
- 5MP rear camera
- 4GB of internal memory
- MicroSD card support
- Pair of speakers on the back
It is sad to see Android 2.3 in a smartphone being announced during mid-2012, but it is depressing to see the same for a tablet. Especially one that is going for almost $2300. But if you have the money and really like a phone with good aesthetics, these devices will be available next August in Russia. There is no mention of it coming to other markets, but we are sure you wouldn’t mind importing it for a bit more cash.
What do you guys say? Would you buy any of these luxury devices? I am more of a functionality guy, so I would rather get a normal device with stunning specs. Even if I had an unlimited amount of cash (in some alternate universe).
