14 DAY TRIAL // Danish company Lumigon spent more than two years working on three exquisite Android smartphones, which were showcased back in February, at the CES (Consumer Electronic Show) event. The T1, S1 and E1 handsets have been planned for launch till the end of this year, but the first to come out is Lumigon T1. The company is teasing Android fans with a virtual invitation posted on its website, to attend at the official release, which will take place on 20th October.
The T1 Android-based smartphone features an ultra small form factor and is powered by a fast Freescale 1 GHz i.MX51 3D processor. The phone comes with Android 2.1, but it would be nice if the manufacturer would plan an upgrade to newer versions too. Other specs revealed by Lumigon include: TFT screen with capacitive touch, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, A-GPS, 720P HDMI out, accelerometer, 5- megapixel camera with flash and autofocus, 3.5 mm jack for audio, FM receiver and FM transmitter.
The device seems to carry Lumigon's proprietary P-GUI software, to give users a little bit more user-friendliness. All three Lumigon smartphones can also be used as universal remotes and pair up with Lumigon's Bluetooth keyboard.
While the stylish bar T1 device is set to be launched on 20th October in Copenhagen, the other two are to follow soon till the end of the year. We will probably see the S1 slider coming out one month later, and the E1 just in time for the winter holidays. On a side note, the latter device seems to embed a "unique navigation system and a shape never experience in mobile phones."
No prices have been revealed yet for neither of the Android smartphones, but we suspect they will be tagged as high-end devices and will be priced accordingly. If you happen to be in Denmark this Fall, Lumigon's launch event might sound interesting.
