Spyker Cars, a Dutch manufacturer of very exclusive sports cars, also has some very nicely designed mobile phones besides a magnificent collection of cars. The target group of the mobile phones are the real Spyker lovers and people that see their mobile phone as the extension of their personality and that do not want to walk around with an "everyman's device". For this target group, Spyker will come with four new Spyker phones in 2009, one by one unique and with a very special design. The four devices with which Spyker will come to the market in 2009 didn't receive a name yet.
The phone above is made out of titanium and has received a very special design. The numbered keys as slim and have a tight look and they give you directly the feeling that you have an exclusive device in hands. The display is protected by crystal glass, which has the unique characteristic to absorb warmth. The device has a quad-band GSM receiver and offers UMTS, HSDPA, HSUPA and WiFi support. The device is equipped with a 3 megapixel camera at the back side and a 1.3 megapixel camera at the front for video telephony. Furthermore, the device has bluetooth with A2DP support for stereo headsets. Furthermore, the device is equipped with a MicroSD memorycard slot in order to be able to expand the internal memory.
The second device that Spyker showed consists of a touchscreen (aboce) and a touch-sensitive part (bottom). The device is a true sight for the eye and has a very high gadget factor. With this device in hand, the owner will regularly attract some attention. The device is a triple-band device with GPRS support. The device is equipped with a 3 megapixel camera and also offers bluetooth with A2DP support.
The third device is equipped as a slider and is made out of black and silver coloured materials. With this, the device immediately receives a chique and elegant look. The device has as a special characteristic that it is a dual-sim device. The device makes it possible to be standby and / or available. By the way, the device can also function with one simcard. It is also not entirely clear whether the device will eventually come to the market as a dual-SIM device, but the device will mainly do good on the East European and Russian market. The device is equipped with a triple-band receiver with GPRS (class 12) support. Bluetooth with A2DP support and a MicroSD memorycard slot is present in the device. Finally, the 2 megapixel camera at the back may not be overlooked.
The fourth device is also a slider and is made out of high-quality aluminium. Due to this, the device feels nice and light, without it looking fragile. This phone is also designed as a dual-sim device. A triple-band receiver with GPRS support is present for both simcsards. Bluetooth with A2DP support, a 2 megapixel camera and a MicroSD memorycard slot make the story complete.
As mentioned earlier, the aforementioned devices have not received definitive names, but they will listen to several titles that will underline the relation with Spyker Cars. All devices can be expected in the upcoming months.
