Nokia Vertu Cell Phone

The Ultimate Bling

Max Faction
I can't do a review on this phone, because I simply can't afford one. I stumbled upon one of these phones for sale at an online auction site, that had a listing price of five thousand dollars.

I then decided to do a search of these phones for a better understanding of them, as I hadn't heard of them before. Was I that ignorant of such high-end luxury products? The five thousand dollar price I saw, was cheap compaired to the prices that I read about after I did some research.

How about spending millions on a cell phone? Would you spend that much? I can't begin to imagine a price tag that high for a cell phone. For this price, they are loaded with diamonds, precious gem stones, gold, and other extras that are over-the-top for the very wealthy.

For 1.3 million, you can get a phone that is studded with diamonds, and is platinum covered. This is a Crypto smart phone-not a Vertu, but I thought I would throw in the information, in case you are looking for that special gift.

This is truly cell phone bling, and at it's finest. Phones are being made by Nokia that are ranging in price from around 6,500, to 72,500.

I read where every phone has access to a concierge service. I don't know how many times I have needed that! And, what about sapphire-encrusted keypads? What happens if you drop one of these phones? Who wants broken sapphires? I think I would rather have gems on jewelry pieces, than on a cell phone.

I went to the Vertu website to learn more about the phones. They are made in England, in a high-security building. I would hope so! I thought it was strange that they would even mention "high security" in describing the building. One would tend to think it would have a lot of security, dealing with the materials that the phones are made of. It seems like the way it was worded, was funny to me.

I searched at the site for where they can be purchased. I did a search for the United States, and they are only sold in fifteen states, mine not being one of them.

There is a link off of the website, that is titled, "Obsessive Craftmanship." One would hope so, for these prices.

Each phone is built by hand. I guess I will just have to win a lottery to experience such luxury. On second thought, I don't know if I would buy one. Would I even fell safe carrying one around? And again, dropping a phone this expensive would be a big concern.

I learned something new today, and I had fun reading about these phones. You can read more at the website, www.vertu.com.
