Luxury Phone Vertu Ti Reaches Indian Shore For Rs 650,000
Ironically, one of the most expensive smartphones ships with the mass-market Android OS.
The Vertu Ti, which was launched globally in February has finally hit the Indian market. According to the product page, the Vertu Ti is handmade by a single craftsman with 184 parts, all assembled in England. The casing is made of grade-5 Titanium, which offers strength as well as elegance. The 3.7" screen is protected by toughened glass, which is supposedly four times stronger than other smartphones.
Although specs don't matter for luxury phones, Vertu was courteous enough to list some of them. The phone draws power from a 1.7 GHz dual-core processor, and has 1 GB of RAM. Other features include an 8 megapixel camera, and 64 GB of internal storage. The acoustics have been engineered in collaboration with Bang and Olufsen.
Priced at Rs 650,000, the Vertu Ti meant for company executives and offsprings of Government Babus. With every handset, Vertu offers exclusive services such as club memberships, city guides, deals on lifestyle products, and invitations to lavish events including the Oscars. Ironically, this premium handset runs the mass-market Android OS. I hope, the company has at least disabled the in-app adverts. Otherwise, "click here to win an iPhone" pop-ups is sure to peeve off anyone who shells out almost 7 lakh on a phone.
