If Levi’s can do it, why wouldn’t Adidas? Apparently the famous German sports equipment makers has teamed-up with Samsung to make an Adidas-branded phone. As expected, the new slider handset is dedicated to sports fanatics who need such tools as pedometer, heart rate monitor and distance/calories burning calculator – easily accessible through dedicated buttons. Plus, there’s the built-in music player to keep you entertained while exercising. Other specs of the Adidas phone (SGH-F110) include quad-band GSM and EDGE connectivity, 2″ screen, Bluetooth 2.0, a 2 MP camera, and microSD expansion slot.
Now when we’re on the subject of sports-oriented phones, Nokia could do the similar thing — partner with some popular sports equipment maker — and releases the co-branded 5500 phone. Seems reasonable, what do you think?
