Not to be outdone by Dolce & Gabbana, Prada or Armani, Hugo Boss has teamed up with Samsung for their first fashion branded phone.
The new Hugo Boss phone is based on the Samsung F480 TouchWiz model and features an exclusive redesigned interface, 5 megapixel camera, 2.8" touchscreen display, standard multimedia features, 3G+, and HSDPA connectivity.
Technically speaking, there is no upgrade or difference between this model and the original one. But if you are willing to pay the inflated price of €499 to have a designer name on your phone, then this sleek 11.6mm thin number is a pretty good choice.
