Samsung teams up with Montblanc and Swarovski for all your overpriced accessories needs

Following the release of Samsung’s latest flagships, the smartphone giant usually teams up with other premium brands to launch a selection of rather expensive accessories. This time is no different, Samsung has partnered up with Montblanc and Swarovski to release a selection of premium cases for its Galaxy S6 Edge+ and Galaxy Note 5 smartphones.

The Montblanc collection features two protective leather covers, ladled soft gain and extreme, for both the Note 5 and S6 Edge+, the latter of which also comes with a flip wallet pocket. The collection also features a limited edition selection of hard-shell covers that feature handmade tattoo designs from artist Mo Coppoletta. You can see a little about how these are made in the video below. Montblanc has previously worked with Samsung to design cases for the Galaxy S6 and Note 4 too.

Swarovski is another previous Samsung partner and has again created a small selection of hard cover cases encrusted with enough jewels to rival the Queen of England’s crown. Ok not quite, the Crystal Silver cover only boasts 1,300 little crystals while the Imperial State Crown features more than 3,000 precious stones (thanks internet), but it’s really not a bad effort. Swarovski will also offer an even more premium case as part of its Edelweiss collection, which will be available in November just for the S6 Edge+.

We don’t have any price or launch date details for the accessories just yet, but if they are anything like the last batch, they will all probably end up being rather expensive. The collection will be available to order exclusively online in select countries.
