Bentley Launching Smart Phone Lineup
Bentley sells some of the most luxurious cars on the road, and now the brand will also peddle high-end cell phones.
In partnership with luxury smart phone company Vertu, Bentley will offer a branded smart phone that will carry the English brand’s distinct style and experience. Bentley has signed a five-year deal with Vertu, with the first phone launching in October, 2014. Four more phone designs will eventually be released.
The phone will have some special features, including a Bentley app with a concierge, the latest version of Android, wireless charging and a Snapdragon 2.3GHz quad-core processor.

Pricing for the Bentley phone is not yet available, but the phone on which it is based costs around $11,000, so expect the price tag to be in that neighborhood.
