Most Expensive Mobile Phone in the World

By edelweiz on 22nd November, 2009

Last Saturday while in Glorietta 4, Makati, I saw what could be one of the most expensive mobile phones in the world today. The brand is Vertu and it costs a whopping P383,000. That’s more or less $ 8,326 USD. I couldn’t believe my eyes.

This little discovery prompted me to research on Vertu. I learned it’s a pioneering luxury mobile phone brand and it’s a division of Nokia. According to reports, it currently monopolizes the global market for luxury mobile phones. Okay. Fine.

In fairness with the phone, it has sleek design and looks quite sophisticated. If I had money though, I still wouldn’t buy it because I prefer function and quality over design and prestige when it comes to my mobile phones.
