Singapore-based Primo Mobile unveiled the Evoluzione, an Android smartphone bearing the famous charging bull logo found on Italian sports car maker Lamborghini. Specs-wise, this mobile phone falls in the midrange category. It comes with a 3.2-inch HVGA (320 x 480) display, 600MHz Qualcomm processor, HSDPA, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and a 5-megapixel camera. The device runs on vanilla Android 2.1 (Eclair) currently. A company representative said there’s a possibility of an upgrade to Android 2.2 but stopped short of confirming it.
What sets it apart is the brand. Tonino Lamborghini is a spinoff brand of the car maker which offers lifestyle products such as watches and coffee makers. It commissioned Primo Mobile to produce a smartphone and the result is the Evoluzione. This smartphone will appeal to fans of the brand rather than tech enthusiasts because of the specifications. It will go on sale in Singapore come Q1 2011. The company is speaking to operators worldwide and hopes to offer it globally next year. The Evoluzione has an estimated retail price of S$788.
side from the Android device, Primo Mobile will also be offering the Passione feature-phone. This will also go on sale next year though no price was given. Aside from the regular black version, a limited-edition yellow model will also be offered bearing the signature of Tonino Lamborghini on the back battery cover.
