The Galaxy S phones keep coming, as a device has popped up showing off the Giorgio Armani brand name. From the pictures the phone looks exactly the same as the Captivate, which is the AT&T version of the device. To differentiate it from the rest of the bunch, it seems that it will release with some more multimedia options pre-installed along with the trendy props users will get once sporting a phone with the Giorgio Armani name. As expected, it will carry a hefty price tag, rumored to be €700. If you are a huge fan of Giorgio Armani and Android, your dreams are about to come true. Hands-on video's after the break.

Giorgio Armani and Samsung set to release a Galaxy S handset, will carry hefty price [from the forums]
Expect to see these on clearance for like 1/2 price a month after release.
WTF who pays extra for the phone to have "Armani" written on the face. The depths of peoples idiocy when it comes to spending money and the things that they think are important in life is disgusting. You should buy something for what it does, not the name printed on it.
haha reminds me of that HTC Evo vs Iphove video:

But but its has giorgio armani printed in it. But seriously if you buy this your an idiot. But looks like its running froyo unless the new search widget made it to 2.1
The Box looks Cool! I wonder if these are our old non-working GPS Captivates? LOL I wonder if Giorgio would stand for it if his GPS didn't work? And No, I wouldn't pay extra for this phone or the box! :-)
Well, I'm not a big fan of Armani, but I am a huge fan of ridiculously inflated prices! So this seems right up my alley.
700 euro??? Thats about $1500 US!!!! For a phone??? I think not!
This is definitely for the "I have an iPhone" crowd, who are now bored by looking at little blue boxes on every other web page (Adobe Flash banned by Steve Jobs, the tyrant).
I wonder what carrier will be on the phone. With that big price tag, I bet Verizon. Their plans are the most expensive@!
isnt verizon the same price as ATT?
and ATT no longer has unlimited data, so they would be more expensive. ill have to do a little more research but thats how it was the last time i checked.
and i heard verizon had a 69.99 plan going on like sprint for new customers.
its painfully obvious this person has no idea what hes doing with such an advanced smartphone.
also he had no idea what the sd card adapter was hahaha
but seeing that phone power on reminded me of the first time i turned on my epic : )
Very creepy video. Why does the guy not talk???
This guys got fat fingers. They are like little sausages.
