The most expensive serial phones in the world

Previous models were unique not only in materials and price, but also in quantity. Each phone was produced in a single copy or in quantities of no more than 5-10 pieces. However, there are several companies that mass produce luxury phones that only the very wealthy can afford.

Vertu

The British company Vertu, created as a subsidiary of the Finnish Nokia, has been producing luxury phones since 1998. As a rule, it is used for the manufacture of mobile devices gold, platinum, titanium alloy And gems.

The models are made of 18-carat yellow or white gold and are completely encrusted with diamonds, the number of which can reach several hundred pieces. For example, the Signature with Gold Pave model contains 943 diamonds.

But tell me, does it make sense to buy the most expensive mobile phone in the world, despite the fact that its technical characteristics will not differ in any way from ordinary average smartphones? price category? It is also doubtful that anyone will repair the most expensive phone in the world under warranty if it breaks, and how difficult it will be to find the missing part, especially if it is a 26-carat black gold diamond. But the most dangerous thing is that once robbers see photos of the most expensive phone, they will immediately start hunting for it, because a $100,000 phone is a fortune.

Comparing the expensive Vertu and the budget Fly

If you think about it, you will immediately come to the conclusion that viewing a video or photo through sapphire glass and glass, say, Gorilla Glass, will be exactly the same.

Let's say the most good phone any of the popular brands, for example, the Fly brand, are head and shoulders above the same Vertu in terms of characteristics.

What characteristics does a Vertu phone have for 300 thousand rubles?

• This is a 4 core processor
• Camera 13MP
• 4.7" screen
• And also pre-installed outdated Android 4.0 OS.

What can the same company Fly offer? For example, consider the one released in May 2017 Fly smartphone Cirrus 13.

• The lightweight metal case houses a powerful 1.5 GHz quad-core processor
• High quality bright IPS display with a diagonal of 5 inches and FullHD resolution
• Excellent 13 megapixel camera
• Capacious lithium-polymer battery 2400 mAh.
• In addition, the smartphone runs on the latest Android 7 Nougat OS.

Moreover, its cost is only 8,990 rubles.

As you can see, there is no point in buying the most expensive phone in the world in 2017, given that in this case you will get a beautiful toy with not the highest quality and power. What you need to do is to buy a smartphone with the latest specifications at a very affordable price. Also, Fly provides a two-year warranty on all its products, which will undoubtedly tip the scales in favor of purchasing a mobile device from this brand.

It is unlikely that a person buying a gadget for almost nine thousand dollars will think about saving. Of course, the main advantage of Equilibrium lies in the finishing.

In the case of regular smartphones, the price tag depends on the characteristics and components used. If the device has built-in Fingerprint's scanner, 6 GB random access memory, a 24-megapixel camera and a capacious battery with support for fast charging, then it will be expensive. But even with all this, the price tag will not exceed $400-$700. In the case of luxury smartphones, the cost is limited by the materials used to create the case. It can be leather, fabric, gold, platinum, diamonds and other precious elements. Interestingly, the list of the most expensive also includes luxury phones equipped with a numeric keypad - it is not limited only to smart devices.

• Production: Sony Ericsson and Jaren Goh
• Operating system: Windows Mobile 5

Price: $300,000

By modern standards of luxury devices, this smartphone looks too simple. It looks like an ordinary push-button device with Windows Mobile on board. But at one time, the Black Diamond VIPN Smartphone made a lot of noise, because elite materials were not really used in the production of such equipment at that time. The creators of this device decided to give it an unusual curved shape. According to them, this greatly simplifies storing the device in your pocket. They also worked on the keyboard, which was made more durable due to polycarbonate mirror glass.

It’s almost invisible from the photographs, but the model still belongs to the elite class. The fact is that there are two black diamonds here. One is located in the control joystick, and the second is on the rear panel. That is why huge amounts of money were asked for the joint creation of Sony Ericsson and the Singaporean designer.

Vertu Boucheron Cobra

• Production: Vertu
• Operating system: proprietary firmware

Price: $310,000

Mobile phone with a very pretentious appearance. The front panel of the device is decorated with a fairly long snake, the body of which was made of gold. At the same time, the buyer could choose what kind of gold it should be - yellow, white or pink. Also in the body of the snake you can see inclusions of rubies and sapphires, the total number of which reaches 438 pieces. The reptile's eyes are made of emeralds. There are also two large diamonds on the body of the elite product.

Vertu has never made more expensive phones. You need to understand that although it produces elite devices, its products can still be purchased not only by millionaires and billionaires. It can also be noted that only eight Cobras were produced. Their customers were unlikely to use the phone for its intended purpose. The fact is that the snake placed on the front panel caused some discomfort when the device was in the hand and near the ear.

Gresso Luxor Las Vegas Jackpot

• Production: Gresso
• Operating system: proprietary firmware

Price: $1,000,000

Have you won a lot of money at the casino? Why not spend it all on purchasing a mobile phone? It seems that this is exactly what the creators of Luxor Las Vegas Jackpot were hinting at. This is an extraordinary device that costs much more than other Gresso mobile phones. This is explained by the use of black diamonds, which are extremely rare in nature. There is also traditional gold, which was used to achieve ancient Egyptian motifs.

The device surprises even more when you look at its back panel. The battery cover is made from 200 year old black ebony wood! As for the keyboard, each button on it is a microscopic sapphire that has been laser polished. The thickness, which is only 12 mm, is also somewhat surprising. For a push-button mobile phone, this was a decent result.

• Production: JSC Ancort Company
• Operating system: Windows CE

Price: $1,300,000

This is a real masterpiece of jewelry art. The creation of this device took the Moscow company eight months. Peter Aloisson was responsible for the design and assembly of the device.

Files, call logs, SMS and Internet traffic are all encrypted using a 256-bit key. A separate processor is even responsible for this function - TMS 320 VC 5416.

And yet, the device had such a high price tag not because it was one of the first to learn how to encrypt data. Huge amounts of money were asked for the case, which was made of 950-carat platinum. It also contained inserts of 50 white and blue diamonds. The body also contained ebony wood.

Gold Vish Le Million

• Production: Emmanuel Gate
• Operating system: proprietary firmware

Price: $1,300,000

We are talking about GoldVish Le Million, created by a designer from Switzerland, who has previously distinguished himself with a variety of watches and various jewelry. At one time, this mobile phone was even included in the Guinness Book of Records, where it was called the most expensive. Interestingly, in the future the price of the device has increased even more!

A total of three copies were created. The device case was made of 18-karat gold (white, pink and yellow - to choose from). Additionally, diamonds were encrusted here.

iPhone 3G King's button

• Production: Petea Aloisson
• Operating system: iOS

Price: $2,410,000

If we look at different premium smartphones, we can see that many jewelers are partial to Apple technology. Everyone knows that Apple devices are wildly popular.

This man started creating luxury mobile phones back in 1998. And after about 10 years he got his hands on the iPhone 3G. All the accumulated experience was invested in it. As a result, a device called the “Royal Button” was born.

It is very difficult to take your eyes off this device. What attracts the most attention is the huge diamond embedded in the Home button. Of no less interest is the display frame, consisting of 138 tiny precious stones. The case itself is made of an alloy of yellow, pink and white gold.

• Production: GoldStriker
• Operating system: iOS

Price: $3,200,000

It is curious that not only the smartphone, but also its packaging could boast of luxurious materials. The fact is that for additional money the device could be supplied in a seven-kilogram package, carved from granite and trimmed inside with natural fine-haired leather.

iPhone 4 Diamond Rose

• Production: Stuart Hughes
• Operating system: iOS

Price: $8,000,000

This smartphone, after its creation, immediately entered the Guinness Book of Records. Interestingly, in appearance it is not very different from the original. Famous jeweler Stuart Hughes decided to leave some elements of the case so that this device would still be recognizable as an Apple product. What did he bring to the device from himself? Only 500 perfectly cut diamonds weighing up to 100 carats or more. The apple company logo alone took 53 diamonds! The remaining “pebbles” were built into the side ends.

Separately, it should be noted the Home button located under the display. It is encrusted with a pink diamond weighing 7.4 carats. This is a very large and rare gem. It is because of such an expensive diamond that the iPhone 4 Diamond Rose received an incredibly high price tag. However, this did not prevent all copies from finding their buyers.

iPhone 5 Diamond Black

• Production: Stuart Hughes
• Operating system: iOS

Price: $15,300,000

With the release of the iPhone 5, jeweler Stuart Hughes, who lives in Liverpool, decided to top his own achievement.

iPhone 5 Diamond Black was released in a single copy. 24-karat yellow gold was used to make its case. There are 600 small precious stones at the ends. On the back panel is the Apple logo, consisting of 53 “pebbles”. The screen was covered with sapphire glass, which was quite expensive at the time.

• Production: Falcon
• Operating system: iOS

Price: $95,500,000

The Falcon brand is familiar to many who are interested in luxury mobile phones. This company's assortment includes a wide variety of devices that can appeal to businessmen of any income. It was she who released the most expensive smartphone in the world, called the SuperNova Pink Diamond iPhone 6. The usual “six” never dreamed of the materials from which the body of the elite model is made. 18k yellow gold was used here. There are also options in which platinum and rose gold are used. But the smartphone has such a high price tag not because of gold or platinum, but because of the huge pink diamond built into the back panel.

If the buyer does not have that much money, then you can consider the version of this device with a less rare blue diamond - it costs $48.5 million. The manufacturer also recommends acquiring additional accessories. For example, gold or platinum headphones will cost only $300 thousand.

Aesir AE+ Y Phone, priced at a pitiful, insignificant 60 thousand dollars, according to analysts, is capable of competing with Vertu products.

Technologies from 10 years ago: no touch screen, no internet connection, no camera, no GPS, no chance of installing the Angry Birds app. Calls, messages, and for entertainment: a calculator and an alarm clock.

The lack of functionality is compensated by the material - pure gold (18 carats) and an exclusive design from industrial designer Yves Behar. Available for purchase in the Danish chain of exclusive goods stores Aesir.

Who needs this miracle? The creators of the Aesir AE+ Y phone are focused primarily on Moscow oligarchs. No, hardly anyone will use it. But it will really decorate a collection of elite communications equipment.

The manufacturer also took care of the poor by releasing a budget version made of steel instead of gold.

Those who have an extra couple of thousand dollars lying around in their pocket, instead of the previous copy, the Aesir AE+ Y phone, can afford the more technologically advanced iPhone History Edition for an amount of about $62,700-67,000 (according to various sources).

Not even a 4S, but still has quite a lot of functionality: the internal filling remains unchanged. The number of copies is limited to 10 units.

The creator of this miracle is jeweler Stuart Hughes, whose creations we will meet more than once in the current article. Katherine’s wife suggested the idea and inspired the master to create this creation.

So, what's good about this device? The Apple logo, as well as around the perimeter, the device is decorated with diamonds, but this is not the most valuable thing about it. main feature iPhone 4 History Edition – back cover, made from 2, it’s not enough to say: unusual materials for the production of smartphones - a meteorite and a tooth of a tyrannosaurus rex, a witness of the Cretaceous period, aged 65 million years!

More than affordable phone. The price of Goldvish Equilibrium starts at $7.5 thousand, however, for those who are not used to cheap things, there are copies for $110 thousand, thanks to which this smartphone is in 3rd place in the list of the most expensive phones in the world. The difference in price is due to the material of manufacture: steel, titanium, aluminum alloy, leather inserts, of course, gold and platinum.

As in the first case, the phone is deprived of modern technologies. At the same time, some models support work with 2 SIM cards, which sets this device apart from all other premium communication devices.

The device is not a collector's item - it is available for free sale, including in stores in our country.

Jarden Secret series from Savelli Geneva, a company specializing in the production of luxury smartphones exclusively for the fair sex.

The lucky owner has at her disposal the Android OS with all its capabilities. However, the main thing in these devices is different, otherwise they would not be worth the money. Speaking of the latter: the price of Jarden Secret series phones ranges from $5.8 thousand for “budget” models to $127 thousand (76,500 pounds sterling) for the most expensive copy of the collection.

In order for Savelli Geneva smartphones to be born, innocent animals sacrificed their lives: ostriches, alligators, caimans, iguanas, decorating the back panel with their skins.

The curved display is made of sapphire glass. French DJ Stephanie Pomponyac worked on the ringtones. The phones are decorated with diamonds, the buttons are made of gold. A unique design that its creators are so proud of... for a connoisseur, it is unlikely that many will be able to appreciate it.

You can buy this stuff exclusively only in 2 places on our planet: Paris and London, in the Printempts and Harrods shopping centers, respectively.

The Chairman Luxury Hybrid SmartPhone from the Swiss company Ulysse Nardin, which has specialized in the manufacture of luxury watches since 1846, will be released in a limited quantity of 1846 pieces.

The price starts from 50 thousand conventional units, the upper limit is $130 thousand.

Superior synthesis: innovation and modern technologies merged with the best watchmaking traditions. The materials used for production are classic for watches: carbon fiber, sapphire glass, gold, platinum. Each piece is assembled by hand. The smartphone runs on Android, touch screen, 8 MP camera.

Truly masculine design. But the most important feature of the Ulysse Nardin Chairman smartphone is the clock mechanism that uses kinetic energy to recharge the battery.

Jeweler Stuart Hughes, who has already been featured in the current article, got to the old Nokia 8800 Arte, decorating it with 1225 diamonds (total weight 12.5 carats), spending 83 grams of platinum, created a Nokia Supreme, worth 100 thousand pounds sterling, that is, about $170 thousand. The work took 2 months, a total of 3 copies were made.

There is no point in noting the functionality of the 2007 model - it simply does not exist. This is perhaps the most expensive device for cracking nuts.

The iPhone 3G (this was during the crisis year of 2009) was decorated by the famous Austrian jeweler Peter Aloysson. The product is called Kings Button (looking at the device, it becomes obvious why) - instead of pressing the plastic in the place where the Home button is located, the owner of the smartphone has the opportunity to touch a huge transparent diamond weighing 6.6 carats.

In addition to the central one, the product is decorated with another 138 beads and 18 carats of gold.

The cost of the iPhone 3G Kings Button toy is about 2.5 million dollars, which made this smartphone the most expensive in the world... for 2009. Today this is no longer the case.

The iPhone itself is an object of desire for all those who have “extra” money in their pockets. And if you’re going to “upgrade” any phone, it’s this one.

Stuart Hughes, already familiar to us, spent 5 hundred diamonds weighing a total of 100 carats (of which 53 were used for the Apple logo, the rest for the side part); the end and back panel are plated with rose gold - all this “happened” with the 4th generation iPhone. On the front panel, the central button in the form of a bead, weighing 7.4 carats, attracts the eye; another one, weighing 8 carats, is included in the set.

The cost of the phone, with which you can probably call Lucifer himself, is $8 million. Two copies were made, and the fate of at least one of them has already been decided - it was purchased by a businessman from Austria.

1. iPhone 5 Black Diamond

Who could create a $15 million (£10 million) phone? It’s not hard to guess: it’s the same master jeweler from Liverpool, Stuart Hughes. The price of his creations seems to be increasing exponentially.

For this money you can buy a small country, you can buy 14 thousand regular iPhones, but why, you can spend it on an iPhone 5 Black Diamond. This is exactly what a businessman from China did when he placed an order for a miracle in feathered diamonds.

So, 24 carat gold, 600 diamonds. Traditionally, central, on site Home buttons– the largest, this time, weighing 26 carats. The cost of this stone alone is 9 million pounds; in fact, the black diamond was provided by the customer himself. It took the master 9 weeks to complete the work.
