LAMBORGHINI 88 TAURI

L

amborghini 88 Tauri is a luxury smartphone from Tonino Lamborghini, a
merchandising company founded by the Tonino, son of Lamborghini (the
company that makes luxury sports cars founder Ferruccio Lamborghini.
The phone not only features premium materials and a unique design but also
boasts top-end hardware specifications unlike most other luxury phones. Of
course at a price of Rs 4 lakh plus, the smartphone is targeted at high net worth
individuals, who’d care more about the snob value quotient than the value for
money it offers.
The phone is assembled by hand and receives a unique device number. It
features some design elements borrowed from Lamborghini’s family company that
makes super premium cars.
Lamborghini 88 Tauri runs Android 4.4 KitKat and besides a few skinned app
icons, the UI does not feature customisations and is close to stock version of the
OS. The phone is powered by a 2.26GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 quad-core
processor, Adreno 330 GPU and 3GB RAM. It comes with a 3400mAh battery,
64GB internal storage expandable via microSD card and Wi-Fi, 3G, 4G (FDD LTE
1800MHz) and NFC connectivity options. Interestingly, the phone is a dual-sim
device.
At 250 grams, the Lamborghini 88 Tauri is an unwieldy device
and measuring 158.6x80x13mm, it’s hard to put the phone in your
pocket. However, it’s unlikely that people who buy it would not want
to flaunt it.
