The most expensive phone in the world… so far…
If you think the above image is of some tacky new case for the iPhone 3GS, trimmed in Swarovski crystals, the de defacto mobile phone gems of choice.. well it would be understandable. You’d be wrong though.
What this photo actually depicts is the world’s most expensive mobile phone, at least until some OTHER millionaire decides to out shine the Aussie business man who paid the equivalent of $3.3 million CDN for this…
Priced at £1.92 million , 10 months in the making , the whole casing was created with 271 grams of 22ct solid gold . The front bezel houses 136 flawless diamonds colour F ,which total to a massive 68 cts . The rear logo in solid gold has 53 flawless diamonds amounting to 1ct and the front navigation button is home to a single cut very rare diamond at 7.1 cts. The chest which houses this unique handset is made from a single block of Granite , in Kashmir gold with the inner lined with Nubuck top grain leather , which weight is a massive 7kg.
If you want to really get your mobile bling on, or looking special gift for the special phone fondler in your life, you can find a range of fine custom phones at Stuart Hughes, in some cases as low as $33,000.
I just ordered 5.
The Rose Gold one, at $33,000 is classy and affordable, by comparison.
The best part is how next June the new model will come out, starting up a whole new round of over the top designs.
Totally. And the sad epilogue to this tale: People will buy them.
