Samsung's latest device combines high-tech with haute couture: the company has just debuted a Windows Phone designed by fashion heavyweight Giorgio Armani.

According to Inquisitr, the Samsung Giorgio Armani phone wowed Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer, who called it "the most fashionable phone [he's] ever had a chance to talk about."

Aside from the flashy highlights and Armani logo, SlashGear reports it's a pretty ordinary Windows Phone:

To be honest, aside from the branding this is a pretty generic Windows Phone, with all the usual specs you'd expect, including GPS and a microSD card slot. Still, there's 8GB of onboard storage, which is welcome, and bronze highlights "which coordinates perfectly with Giorgio Armani suits" so the designer claims.

Like anything Armani, the phone doesn't come cheap: SIM-free it's expected to be priced at around €700 ($1,031), says SlashGear.

Oh my! What innovation! They've taken the text of a recognizable name and printed it on the phone. What will they think of next!? I'll see you in line everyone.
