So far as most people are concerned, if we’ll pay plenty for a phone — you realize, like, $350 on contract — it had better include the works. We’re talking a qHD display, dual-core processor, 8 megapixel camera with 1080p recording, NFC, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of storage, and a 4G radio, besides. If you are someone who buys things made by Tag Heuer , you’ve gotten different priorities. The corporate just introduced the Link Phone, a darling clunker of a handset festooned with steel, 18K rose gold, or titanium, topped off with leather, alligator, rubber, and diamond accents — a medley that’ll set you back a minimum of €4,700 ($6,712). What’s that you just say? You would like specs? The Link, named after the Swiss outfit’s storied watch line, runs Android 2.2 — a transparent step up from its feature phone predecessor . Other ho-hum features include the three.5-inch (800 x 480) display, 5 megapixel autofocus camera, 256MB internal memory, an 8GB memory card, 1400 mAh battery, and EDGE / HSUPA connectivity. Tag Heuer also says the telephone might be particularly durable, though it’s arising short on specifics. Somehow, though, we do not think it’ll survive once we accidentally drop it in our gold-plated toilet.
