"We are combining luxurious design with the practical, everyday benefits of consumer electronics to complement Philips' brand promise "sense and simplicity" and Swarovski brand promise of Poetry & Precision", says Rudy Provoost, Chief Executive Officer of Philips Consumer Electronics.

P.S.

For those who adore the second approach, the collection will be out in stores from August.
