Vertu Signature Cobra
Vertu 眼鏡蛇手機
By far the priciest of the bunch is also unequivocally the most outrageous. In 2006, British luxury handset maker Vertu and French jewelry, watch and perfume-maker Boucheron puts their heads together and emerged with the Signature Cobra, a 190-gram phone whose most prominent (read: garish) feature was a bejeweled cobra -- two diamonds, two emeralds for eyes and 349 rubies -- wound tightly around a handset with an antiquated 1.9-inch 262,000-color TFT screen.
到目前為止,這款最貴的手機也是最無聊的。2006年,英國豪華手機制造商Vertu和法國首飾,手表和香水生產商 Boucheron合作推出這款眼鏡蛇手機,其最突出的(最花哨)的特點是在手機兩旁的蛇身上鑲嵌有439顆重21克拉的紅寶石,蛇眼睛則為兩顆祖母綠。
Like Samsung and Bang & Olufsen's Serenata, it too lacked any type of digital camera. In the end, only eight Signature Cobra units were created and sold for $310,000, however Vertu followed up with a more "frugal" edition, the Signature Python, priced to move at $115,000 with a limited run of 26 pieces.
和Serenata一樣,它也沒有攝像頭。最后,只有8部簽名眼鏡蛇以31萬美元的單價售出,但Vertu隨后又推出了一款節儉版,定價在115,000美元,限量26件。
