The Most Expensive Phones of 2006

Filed under: Gadgets

The list of the five most expensive phones of 2006! Erm, that is, the phones we've written about. So get out those check cards and make someone really happy this holiday season!

5. The world's first luxury phone company launched in 2002, the London-based subsidiary of Nokia called Vertu, and we loved what they've been doing. Not only do its phones boast superior electronics, but the shells aren't too shabby either. They say the reception is "as clear as a Mozart symphony," and they phones' near-indestructibility comes from metals like titanium and aluminum and precious stones like sapphire and ruby. These celeb-magnets run from about $10-$20K.

Million Dollar Cellphone

Filed under: Gadgets

Our friends at Engadet spotted the ultimate in cell phone luxury: a million dollar phone. Made by the Swiss company GoldVish, the phone is made of 18-karat white gold and encrusted with 120-carats of VVS-1 grade diamonds. Of course, the phone is fully equipped with Bluetooth, a 2GB memory, an 8x digital camera, MP3 player, worldwide FM radio and e-mail capability. The company also offers phones in the same line, sans diamonds, in 18-karat yellow, pink and white gold that start at $25,600. Diamonds can be added to any of their other phones, as well.
