Givori Extends Luxury Range to Android with Launch of Samsung Galaxy S7 edge ‘Carbon' Series

Commanding Masculine Design Combines Exotic Leather with the Latest in Smartphone Technology to Deliver an Opulent Mobile Experience

Dubai, UAE, April 14, 2016:  Luxury smartphone designer Givori has extended its latest range to include Android-powered devices with the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge ‘Carbon’ series.

The new collection adorns the celebrated Korean mobile maker’s flagship device with premium alligator leather, catering to loyal Android users with an appreciation for exquisite craftsmanship. Emanating masculinity, the Carbon edition of the dual-SIM S7 edge will make a commanding yet sophisticated presence in any room.

Givori’s latest masterpiece, released less than one month after the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge hit shelves globally, is one of the world’s first customized editions of the coveted device. Priced at USD 1,900, the ‘Carbon’ S7 edge embeds the back of the device with high-grade Mississippiensis alligator leather, which is recognized globally as the “Rolls Royce of exotic leathers” and known for its exceptionally durable, softer, and more supple texture than traditional crocodile leather.

One of the most highly sought after raw materials by makers of luxury items, alligator leather also boasts a smooth, three-dimensional feel, and a more uniform scale pattern. Further accentuating this rich material, the Carbon edition of the S7 edge features the unique application of an enhanced matte finish, giving the leather an even smoother texture and amplifying its masculine appearance. 

“We understand our customers have different preferences when it comes to smartphone choice, and the new Carbon series of the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge is part of our efforts to extend the luxury mobile experience to Android fans,” said Layal Akouri, General Manager of Givori. “Now they too have the option of owning a beautifully handcrafted Givori device.” 

Givori transforms today’s most prized possession, the smartphone, into luxury handwear by custom building each phone using the finest materials, from precious metals and high-grade diamonds, to premium exotic leather and vintage rare elements. 

All Givori customizations are meticulously handcrafted in Italy, the UK, and Switzerland to create exclusive editions of some of the most popular smartphones. The timeless designs can be found at Harvey Nichols - Dubai, Bloomingdales – Dubai, select Damas jewellery boutiques, select Mohammad Rasool Khoory & Sons stores in Abu Dhabi, and select Axiom Telecom showrooms across the UAE and KSA.

Givori devices are coated with a nanotechnology film, applied to combat oxidation, fingerprints and color fading, and also come with extensive post-sales support, including one-year warranty on all software, cosmetic, and jewellery elements. Customers can also avail Givori’s free pick-up and delivery service for phones that require repair in the first 12 months.

Givori does not produce phone covers, it customizes smartphones. This means that all luxury design elements are built into the device exterior, with no detachable parts.
