The whole leather thing cheapens it. As a dirty non rich person I guess i'll never know, but god it looks so so tacky. I can visualize it in a plastic clamshell package.

CHEATED ON HIS WIFE, SLEPT WITH PROSTITUTES ON FBI TAPES, JACQUELINE KENNEDY SAID MLK WAS TAPE-RECORDED BY FBI PLANNING A SEX PARTY
I think it is really unfair for Apple to hog the high end smartphone market and we need some much deserved competition in this department and this will lead to better phones as a result of better r&d and smartphones will rise in price furthermore causing consumers to keep their phones for longer, leading to decreased demand.


Moving on

Remember that one Ocean's 11 movie where the bad guy had his super cool gold cellphone. The iPhone hadn't come out yet, so I bet he felt kind of like an rear end when it did.

Game's over, and fuck you Jimson. It's not my fault that you guys couldn't get your shit together by deadline. No one gets access to docs because I don't fucking care anymore, I hope you all enjoyed ruining my game, and there won't be another.
The worse part is the phones specs are kinda rear end. You atleast expect some like experimental 2.5ghz quad core processor or some poo poo.

Nowadays, you can do anything that you want; anal, oral, fisting, but you need to be wearing gloves, condoms, protection.
Vertu Phones are generally not particularly good. They're deffo high end with hardware, but there's nothing special other than that. They're trimmed with gold and leather.

Basically they're phones for dumb loving rich boomers who think wearing poo poo like gold wrist watches makes them seem rich and important, and honestly its the sort of poo poo other boomers appreciate.

Anyone whose got any amount of cash and is remotely in touch with reality just owns a 5S or a 5C.
