Samsung’s Armani 2 Night Effect Mobile Phone Forgets to Include Stylishness
7:24PM Kit Eaton | Samsung’s original Armani phone was a tiny, touchscreen, haptic-feedback gizmo, and actually not bad looking at all: so I’m confused about the upcoming Armani 2 Night Effect. It’s a plain candybar mobile phone, emblazoned with large Emporio Armani emblems and it seems to have totally forgone attempts at simple stylishness. Get this—around the edge of the phone there’s a red, green or blue-LED glowing strip, presumably the “night effect” part. Maybe it’s my impression of what style is, but that’s just tacky. The specs of the phone aren’t too amazing either. More »

Samsung and Armani Launch HDTVs That Look… Like Every Other HDTV
2:34AM Matt Buchanan | The Samsung/Armani design train keeps rolling, now from mobiles to HDTVs. Today in Milan, Sammy and Giorgio showed off the first Armani LCD TVs—a 46-incher and a 52-inch model. Both are 100Hz “Full HD” sets (hopefully that means 1080p, not 1080i), and will strut their stuff in Europe, Korea and Russia this summer. The fashionable part is apparently the customisable Samsung and Armani logos. Ooooo… Oh, and it’s got two remotes, a mini-pebble for basic functions, and a swankier one that does everything, but we don’t have any pics of ‘em yet. No price, but it’s probably stupid expensive.
