Porsche and Sagem Launch New Handset

01 Oct, 2008, 3:15 pm IST | Shayne Rana | Mobile phones

Another Porsche handset by Sagem has made an appearance and this time the company has decided to go with a more conventional candy bar form factor for the design, but there’s nothing really conventional about the handset on the whole.


The new Porsche P'9522 handset comes equipped with a plethora of high tech features that include a 2.8 inch mineral glass touch screen. Porsche has again used a single block of aluminum and just like the P'9521, it will also have biometric fingerprint scanner to unlock the phone. Other features will include Wi-Fi connectivity and though it won’t be 3G enabled it will support EDGE and GPRS. The P'9522 will also have microSD memory card support, an integrated GPS chip and a 5MP camera.

Assembled by hand in Fougeres, France, the P'9522 is expected to be launched at Rs. 39,545 (600 Euros) sometime in the next month, which is relatively lower than what the P'9521 cost at launch. Of course this is not official yet, so stay tuned.

Considering the price of the previous model and the upgraded features of this one, it looks like the price is short by Rs. 50,000. Let’s hope not.
