goddamnit that vertu abortion of a website and literally every other ~luxury~ goods website look the same with lovely animations and text blurbs about ~craftsmanship~.

It's like when Montblanc went from being a business that produced expensive but good pens to a business that produces overpriced bling which happens to include pens.

True enough. If you call anything luxury and spend a shitload on materials and engineering people will still buy it and use it as a status symbol (see also: watches).

Apparently when you buy it they give you a phone butler who you can call 24/7 and you get invited to private events and stuff. Maybe that's what you're paying for and not the ugly phone

i like that it has a stupid ruby button because that's a much more convenient status symbol than me paying an army of mercenaries to kidnap an entire african village so that i can gently caress all the villagers in the rear end

oh so a phone that's handmade in england costs 10k but a phone that some starving 12 year old made in china is only $500? racist bullshit.

I don't even think 10k would be outrageously exorbitant for a phone if it was actually really good. I mean, think about how much time people spend on their phones.

id spend 10k on a phone that you could also use as a mobile wireless hotspot or if it did something or multiple things equivalently cool.

yeah, exactly. like 10k for a cool phone would be okay if it's a really cool phone.

going to assume 'phone butler' means a pimp and 'private events' means whores.

i don't understand why luxury phone companies don't team up with those indian personal assisstant companies

The concierge thing seems pretty dope but there has to be a catch to it if they're only charging $3000 a year
