Is that a Ferrari in your pocket…

The thing about Ferraris is, though you may look very cool sitting in one, you look like a complete berk if you hold a miniature one next to your head and start talking into it. Obviously nobody told this to the manufacturers of the F1 (spotted on Tech Digest) however, who has decided that a phone shaped like a Ferrari is just the sort of classy item any self respecting automotive enthusiast will lap up.

Even so it has plenty of bells and whistles to help it function as a half decent phone considering it’s essentially a novelty item with a 2.2-inch touch-sensitive LCD display, a music/video media player, a 1.3-megapixel camera with video recording ability, GPS, a memory expansion slot and USB connectivity.

Not brilliant for a £96 entry level price, especially considering you could get a much better phone free on contract that probably won’t make you look like you are mentally unsound when you use it, but not that bad either. At least it’s cheaper than the real thing. More pics after the jump.
