Do you ever get the feeling that even though you have the
latest, most powerful and critically acclaimed flagship smartphone, it's
still not enough of a status symbol? Do you have a couple of grand
going spare that you not only want to spend, but let everyone know you
spent it? Do you want to be a prime target for muggers?
The good news is there's a Finnish company that can help
you with your rather peculiar needs. The modestly-named Legend is
producing hand-crafted 128GB Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge smartphones that can be encased in 24K or 18K gold, rose gold, platinum, or black rhodium.
Prices
start at €2,150 (£1,549) but wait! There's options that let you pay
even more! For an extra €200 (£144) you can get a laser-engraved design,
and for a further €100 (£72), you can get a limited edition that comes
with some animal-inspired designs that amazingly make your very
expensive smartphone look quite cheap and tacky.
The good news is
that Legend has a special secret method of encasing the smartphones in
expensive metals and materials without impacting signal strength, so you
won't be left with an extremely costly paper weight.
You also get a 5 year warranty, so you'll have plenty of time to save up for a new gold-plated Galaxy S11 in the future.
