Yes, this is the second time we’ve heard a cellphone is designed by Porsche. It’s another team-up between Sagem and the luxury car maker, Porsche. The new Sagem /Porsche P9522 cellphone is their new piece here.
The Sagem /Porsche P9522 will definitely come in good look, it’s got a candybar form factor. This phone will feature a 2.8 inch touchscreen built with reinforced mineral glass, equipped with a pretty high-res camera of 5 megapixel which is found in latest cellphones of today.
It also comes with a GPS receiver which is a plus for those who drive a Porsche which you can use it to easily find your way out. About the connectivities, it will have WiFi and support only GSM/EDGE, which sounds little disappointing as it doesn’t come with 3G support. The phone also has a built-in fingerprint reader which seems to add extra security that allows users to be authenticated by fingerprints.
This phone is expected to start shipping in France next month and carry a price tag of around 600 EUR.
