Vertu's new Pure Jet Gold is one of the nicest "rich people smartphones" out there

Hey, does Vertu even need an introduction at this point? Known for its luxurious and opulent handsets, the English phone craftsmen have been on an upward trajectory when it comes to both their designs and their hardware. Ditching diamonds and exotic leather for a classy, mature look, the Pure Jet Red Gold has to be one of Vertu's most attractive creations ever. The volume control keys and power key are highlighted with solid red gold, while a black ceramic "pillow" support completes its lavish Grade 5 PVD-coated titanium structure. The final touch is decoration with "fine-mill" calf leather from the Alpine region.

Under its classy, buttoned-up attire, the Vertu Pure Jet Red Gold is a 4.7-inch 1080p display Android smartphone with a quad-core 2.3GHz Snapdragon 801 processor, 2GB of RAM, 64GB of internal storage, a 13MP Hasselblad camera, and audio technology from Bang & Olufsen.

Care about the price? You know these Vertu phones don't come cheap, so you should be able to stomach the $21,900 price tag the Britons slapped on it. Then again, this really is one of the nicest "rich people phones" out there!
