Vertu Constellation, the Php287,000 Android smartphone

Vertu, a company that designs and crafts mobile phones that only the filthy rich without care for specs would consider buying, has just released the new Vertu Constellation that costs more than a quarter-mil.

The Constellation is what Vertu would describe as a “sleek contemporary design that embodies everything that Vertu believes in: tactile materials, outstanding engineering, hand craftsmanship and modern technology.”

    Ang dami palang mga “technical writers” dito! Walang magawa. Maiba pa, dami ring nagsasabi na “kahit milyonaryo ako” hindi ko ‘yan bibilhin. Eh subukan niyo muna maging milyonaryo. Totoo nga mahal ang phone pero para sa mga may kaya ‘yan. Eh anong problema kung may pambili sila? Sa totoo lang, wala akong pambili nito pero wala naman akong masabi sa mga taong bibili nito. Kasi kaya nila. Para sa mga katulad ko diyan na walang pambili eh unahin nalang ang bigas! Putek nakaka praning basahin puro kayabangan at kagaguhan. May ibang comment dito na may “sense” kaya sana yung mga walang kwentang comment delete nalang o kaya wag nang mag post. Kasi I read yugatech araw araw na siyang kaya ko lang ma afford na pag libangan – at sa walang pagkakahiya kong inaamin, tapos ang comments niyo lang ang nakaksira nang aking araw. Naku naman.

      @duterte hindi lang dahil gawang kamay ang mga bagay kaya nagiging mahal na…isang factor un pero kaya nagiging mahal ung mga handcrafted phones, bags, and even vehicles ay dahil talagang perpekto ang paggawa nila at xempre matagal na gawaan din yan….aanhin mo ang handcrafted na bagay kung di naman perpekto ang pagkakagawa hahaha

    While the price is still sickeningly ridiculous, at least they’ve cut the diamond/gold-bling out and focused more on actual useful-but-expensive materials like the screen and the body. A bit skeptical of the leather though – that seems too much like an insulator which means it won’t do much good for the phone’s heat-venting capability.

      You also forgot that most rich people have 2 or more phones. Brado ka na naman haha. Baradong barado ka na ni Abu Salal ayaw mo pa tumigil lol. Tama na hirit. Sumuso ka na lang sa dede ng nanay mo hahahaha

    Not even a gem like Ruby imbedded around the bezels? C’mon you gotta offer waaay more than that

    1,800 mAh battery? HA! Is that enough to last you sa mga non-stop trans-atlantic fights at private cruises habang nakiki-pag chikahan sa mga ka-sosyo at nag ba-browse sa mga next target Hotels na pupuntahan? not even close

    PATAWA ang VERTU

    I would still laugh at its ludicrous price even if I’m a millionaire

      Kung di ka nga nman bobo, una kung bibili ka ng private jet, puta, dapat me charging dock yan, 2nd, wag kang tanga, may saksaan sa mga cruise ship, di kapa kasi na kakaexperience eh oh well.

    • Avatar for wew wew says:

      ok bobo mode uli si abuzalzal di naman siya milyon ang presyo para malagyan ng gemstones…hindi lang ung materials ang nagpamahal dito kundi ung BRAND mismo…cmon Vertu po ito tska kung namomroblema ka sa battery ang mga buyers nito kayang bumili ng powerbank o battery kahit ilan pa yan dahil sa yaman nila….kaya nga nilang bilhin ang MERALCO eh kung tutuusin…

    • Avatar for abuzalzal abuzalzal says:

      LOL yung dalawang BOBO dito lalo ka na WEW na buntot ng buntot sa mga posts ko

      by your logic (dalawa kayo), kahit 300 mAh pa yan eh OK pa rin yan kasi may power Bank at pwedeng bumili ng sampung high-end phones as a back up…hipocritical pieces of shit, eh hindi niyo rin bibilhin ito eh, maka-kontra lang kayo haha mga gunggong!!!

    • Avatar for wew wew says:

      ang punto namin hindi to binili dahil sa battery…kundi sa premiumness tska wala kming sinabing bibilhin namin to bobo

    • Avatar for secret secret says:

      ang masasabi ko lang dito ay hindi siya street wise. .kung bili ka nalang ng phone na tama lang sa need mo tapos ung sobra ibigay mo nalang sa mga mahihirap, mas marami pang aappreciate sau. .para saan ung “premiumness” ng phone kung marami kang makikitang tao na ni hindi nga makakain. .hindi porket marami kang pambili, may karapatan ka nang waldasin. .ang buhay ay di lang tungkol sa sarili kundi tungkol sa pagpapahalaga rin sa ibang kapos sa buhay. .drama noh? haha

    • Avatar for wew wew says:

      @secret yeah youre right…pero kung mayaman naman ako at gusto ko talagang magkaroon ng vertu,pwede pa rin naman akong tumulong sa iba nang hindi nasasakripisyo ang kagustuhan ko tutal pinaghirapan ko naman un eh.

    So Vertu justifies the P250k difference (from a typical hi-end Android phone) by slapping a sapphire crystal display and titanium body? Hehehe… Ludicrous.
