Bling Alert: Vertu’s Signature Cobra breaks the bling meter!

Cobra_1I am honored to introduce our next cellphone; Vertu’s Signature Cobra.  I don’t know much about the phone features but I know it’s expensive.  What is the Cobra?  The Signature Cobra is a luxurious cellphone encrusted with precious rocks by French jeweler Boucheron and it cost $310,000 USD.  Why?  The Signature Cobra is a ritzy gadget made from one pear-cut diamond, one round white diamond, two emerald eyes and 439 rubies.  Does it feature speaker phone, streaming video, or a nice to-do list?  I’ve come to this conclusion.  Do features matter when an overprice cellphone is worth more than the average home?

For the savvy, intelligent, and bargain shopper does this make an impression?  NO.  It’s a Paris Hilton phone marketed to those who love the bling lifestyle.  The Signature Cobra, as one might observe, is merely a regular phone laced with expensive rocks.  It’s the equivalent of crystallizing an apple or some other fruit.  A once ordinary object is now engulfed with shinny specs of light which glitter from every angle.

If you can’t afford the $310,000 model a cheaper version is available for an affordable $115,000 USD.  Thanks to the discount, .5% of the world’s population can now afford it.  Vertu, the luxury phone company that creates and markets the Signature Cobra, is now taking orders which are currently limited to 8, but only 26 Signature Cobras will be made for the lucky few who make that decision.

Alright Nokia … wtf! Make something classy for gods sake. No one I know makes a phone that has leather, genuine leather, as an exterior. Do you have any clue how classy a 8800 would look like wrapped in alligator leather? This thing looks like you’re trying to sell this to rappers on purpose.
