Folli Follie Gold Fujitsu Phone Launched in Japan

— January 25, 2010 — Art & Design
Tokyo-based technology company Fujitsu partnered with Greek jewelry retailer Folli Follie to introduce a special version of the new phone model F-02B called Folli Follie Gold.

Embedded a 2-karat cubic zirconia (sorry, not a diamond), the soft pinkish gold phone looks like a piece of jewelry itself. The phone also features a Folli Follie welcome screen, as well as the famous orange logo.

To please its customers even further, every phone comes with a twinkling original strap from Folli Follie’s newly launched mobile phone strap collection “Reflections.” Armed with Fujitsu’s new technology, the F-028 Style series is water-resistant and dust-resistant. It is also available in white, black and pink

Targeting picky Japanese female customers, each phone also comes with a fragrance chip on the back, allowing users to personalize it by spraying their favorite scent.
