The Porsche Design Group of Stuttgart, Germany, and French-based
Sagem Mobiles are presenting the first Porsche Design Mobile Phone,
the P’9521. The new mobile phone combines sophisticated, purist
design with high-quality natural materials such as aluminum and
glass.
The casing is milled out of a solid aluminum
block—a unique production method for mobile phones. With this
product, Porsche Design has remained loyal to its clear design
language and has utilized sophisticated material. The typography,
styling and colors of the menu emphasize the mobile phone’s very
functional character. A double hinge made from aluminum enables the
screen to be rotated through 180°—thus allowing the phone to be
used as a digital camera.
The P’9521 features a fingerprint reader,
which clearly identifies the user and thus ensures secure access to
personal data. In addition, individual fingerprints can be assigned
to particular numbers or phone functions, making operation
particularly easy. The standard PIN code can also be replaced by a
fingerprint. The know-how for this technology was delivered by Sagem
Mobiles, which has expertise in the field of biometrics.
The P’9521 features an auto-focus video and
still camera boasting 3.2-megapixel resolution, integrated flash and
digital zoom; The rotating screen with AM-OLED technology ensures
very high quality colors, exceptional brilliance and a perfect view
from every angle; An MP3 player and three speakers for ring tones
and voice playback in stereo quality sound; And, EDGE technology
(Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution), the P’9521 offers very
high-speed Internet access.
