As if the glittering gold of their newly released Professional 105GCB Rose phone was not glamorous enough, Canadian luxury phone manufacturers Mobiado have come up with the first new handset in their Grand Line series bathed in the iridescence of mother-of-pearl – the Grand 350PRL.

Influences from the Swiss watch-making industry continue to run through this collection, with the barrel shaped handset designed to mirror that of tonneau mechanical watches.

With a single slice of sapphire crystal in front, lustrous mother-of-pearl on the back, and ruby crystal on the infrared window, and four colors – black, pink, gold and white – to choose from, the 350PRL is style and glamour personified.

As the very first full keyboard luxury phone in the market, the 350PRL smart phone is unlocked, with quad-band GSM/EGSM, 3.5G, HSPDA, and WLAN connectivity. A 3.2 megapixel camera, GPS, 2.36" display, Bluetooth and micro USB connectivity, and a media player complete the package, making it the ideal business companion for those who appreciate the finer things both at work and play.
