OH MAN, FORGET ABOUT HELPING, AND THINKING IT IS A WASTE. WHAT IF YOU FORGET IT AT A RESTAURANT OR NAIL SALON? THAT WOULD SUCK!!

I have never in my life seen so many upset over a phone. So some guy made a phone with diamonds on it instead of helping the poor. Cry me a river, build me a bridge and get over it. If helping the poor is such a big deal to you, for the love of god get off your ass and help them and stop whining.

I feel you make your money so you can be able to spend it any way you want too. If your going to buy a 1.3 million dollar phone at least let it be a diamond stud smart phone so you can go on the internet with the phone. The stupidest thing to me is putting diamonds on a regular phone. That phone is not worth 1.3, shoot for 1.3 mill.....i want wi-fi on my damn phone. By the way, that phone is the dumbest thing i have ever seen.

Yeah Ellen, that's a great idea. Let's just kill all the soon to be babies of the world instead!

what, do you get a mansion when you purchase the phone?

Is this, what the world has come to?No one think's of the poor and less fortunite or even more so, the poor children who have no food , clothing, or shelter?? Or the poor animal's that are just thrown away like garbage?It saddens my heart!

Wait, let me get my 2.3 million dollar wallet, with the lighted interior and plays "Pennies From Heaven" when you open it and I'll buy the thing.

Alright besides all the helping the homeless and all that, what happens if you lose the phone?? Do they have insurance for that?? And it doesnt say anything about having better service, or a service at all for that matter. You'd pay a mil. for a phone, then for the service, AND you'd still be stuck with some regular service like verizon, just like EVERYBODY ELSE!!! There really is no point. Plus you'd get mugged for it every ten minutes, you dumb@$$es.

Goes to show ones intelligence for one thing Diamonds are worthless The only reason they cost so much is because the diamond brokers keep a lid how many are sold and Ads that make people feel like they are poor dumb idiots if they don't buy them for their wives girlfriends and the like. Actually if they sold they stockpiles of Diamonds they would be worth less than
CZ 's. Oh well, if the economy crashed a sharp stick would be worth more.

Oh my GOD.. the jealousy spewing from these comments are hillarious.
I'm sure everyone, whining about all the money spent on these kinds extravagances, sends all their EXTRA money to the homeless and hungry.
Obviously,this kind of gadget isn't for someone with a $35,000. yearly income. If ya got it, spend it. It's not like you can take it with you when you go.

If you can afford it and you WANT it(we know its not a need) then buy it...sure you could do so many other things with the money but then again the same people that have a problem are the same people who wont donate a $1 to some save the children or feed the poor charity..its all relative..to a billionaire $1.3 mil is the same as that $10k diamond tennis bracelet or that $400 cell phone is to the 6 figure income folk. That said I would never buy a 1.3 mil phone

Yeah, well some individual with absolutely no taste at all can achieve the same looking result by getting those tacky "sticky gems" and adorning some Nokia with that kind of, ugh, very difficult to say .... "bling."

I'll stick with my sleek and sharp RAZR. - Reinhart
