Lumigon T2 Smartphone
I’m gonna go out on a limb and say Apple is still KING of hardware design when it comes to smartphones. Yes Samsung and HTC have beautiful phones but they lack precision and a refined elegance. The latest Nokias are stunning and in some cases, rival their fruity competitor in design. It seems the Scandinavians are the only ones that really know how to design a smartphone. Minimalism has pretty much become their domain and if the Nokias aren’t proof, check out the Lumigon T2.
It’s gorgeous and made of steel – yes you read right, STEEL. The body is perfectly smooth. The sides cleverly hide all the ports so all you see is a steel frame, strong enough for you to stand on. For serious! They even say so in the press release. Powered by a 1.4 GHz Snapdragon processor combined with expandable 8 GB of memory and you’ve got a middle to high end performing smartphone. All this with a coat of Android Ice Cream Sandwich on top.
The two most impressive tidbits are the audio and software. Audio comes from a Bang & Olufsen MS3 chip (thanks Dutchies!) and Android’s overly complicated and cluttered interface has been refined to sit somewhere in between iOS and WindowsPhone.
No idea how much it’ll cost but the T2 launches this autumn in Europe, Asia, and independent online shops. I can’t wait to get my hands on one for review. For now if you want more info, hit up the site and sign up for more info.

MS3 stands for MobileSound3. It is ICEPower technology (ICEPower is a subsidiary of Bang & Olufsen).

Lumigon T2 will survive even with a new iPhone on the market. Not everyone likes Apple’s fascistic way of handling smartphones. Why do you think that Android is the most used smartphone OS in the World?
jeremy says
Android is the most used smartphone OS in the world because hundreds of manufacturers develop for it. Apple iOS is only available from one manufacturer.
If Apple licensed their iOS out to other suppliers it would easily be more popular than Android because of the app store alone. By the way, I am an Android user but I’m not a fanboy.

Finland is not part of Scandinavia if anyone was wondering. In Scandinavia they all share a common Nordic language root. Whereas Finnish is closer to Hungarian and Estonian. It is not remotely near any of the other Scandinavian languages, Norwegian, Swedish and Danish.

One of the biggest major shareholders is actually a Dutch company
