I honestly have to admit it looks cool. Reminds on Silverstone's Raven series cases. Just throw some glitter on and bedazzle the case and you got a Vertu PC. I'm more curious to what the phone's specs are, and if it has any part in justifying the price (disregarding the leather and gems).

Look at my $9k phone! It's got a mahogany back, gold trim, and I can call someone to book flights! It's pretty heavy, though. Hey, anyone know the score of the Packers game?

Seriously, stuart hughes is one thing, but putting symbian on a phone that expensive is a crime.

IDK. Wouldn't buying a top of the line Android phone then buy a designer hand crafted platinum and jeweled phone enclosure for the phone works better? Provide both function and the bling bling rich people need.

Have you ever even used a Symbian phone before?

Awesome, maybe Nokia can buy them out of the Microsoft deal then, to save them from going under

It really does stand out, but with recent celebs seemingly preferring apps and whatnot over exclusivity I don't find Vertu to have the same allure it might have had even 5 years ago.
