    Vertu is usually expensive, although I have no idea why...

    But heck, it's a lot of money to dish out for a phone...

    not something ud want to forget in your pants pocket and accidentally wash.

    that being said, the people who actually buy this phone will probably have so much money that they'd shrug it off in a few minutes.

    Looks like a cheap gimmick to me. $18k for a phone is just ridiculous.

    With production of only 60 phones, you're not going to get one unless you're "special" or something other. =b

    no matter how good the design or brand it is, it's main function is still a phone lol and a phone is definitely not worth 25k. Well unless they make it like damage proof water proof, ultra-long battery and a gazillion other functions but i think the price tag on this thing is based more on the cosmetic aspects.

    Vertu is only the name and lifetime update and warranty. Otherwise, its garbage. -lol

    the design is good but its not worth $25000 even if it has a lifetime warranty, cos the parts would never cost that much for the phone to be produced.

    Vertu is a waste of money as the production of new designer mobiles are continously and those rich people can buy several ones to match their wardrobe. I mean they won't use it for a long time anyway.

    60 phones, theres no money in it for nokia even at that price. Is it like a car thing, where production has to xceed a certain number for homologation purposes.
