With this article, we want to show you the world of boutique phones and accessories, a place where precious stones and metals are more important than the high-tech features ...
A good read, but I think you missed a few key models. The Nokia 8000 series first and foremost, Porsche Design's Alcatel based unit, the Giorgio Amani phone by Samsung, and the Prada phone by LG.
Also, while I think the higher end luxury phones, such as the Goldvishes are a complete waste (not to mention hideous), I wouldn't mind paying for the solid build, and design of something like a Vertu Ascent or Constellation.
Thanks Shannon (#6) for your insight. I agree that people are allowed to spend their money on what ever they want. I am just saying that there is also a social responsibility to your community. If these phones were at all advanced technology wise I might agree with you on the "trendsetters" comment. At this point the consumer is paying the ridiculous price for a quite average phone. The sole attraction to most of these phones is the price tag...gay.
I have nothing against these phones,however I would rather buy a decent car, a house for my family, invest part of the money on my small business and finally donate some money to an organization in my home country.
I understand the rich wanting to be luxurious but umm there are other issues that need to be handled besides buying 20,000 dollar cell phones, this is really impractical and very sad!
