While you’ll never see us sporting one, we are no stranger to Vertu’s luxury devices and have kept tabs on the company over the past few years. Their latest creation, the Vertu Pure Jet Red Gold, is actually one of their more “plain” smartphones, but it will still set you back a staggering $23,100.
The last time we checked in on Vertu, they had just released the Vertu Clous De Paris for Valentine’s Day. The month isn’t over, but they are back with another device dubbed the Vertu Pure Jet Red Gold. It may lack some of the glitz and glam of its predecessors, but it is one of the classier handsets you’ll see – if you actually ever see one in person. Not many folks will be walking around with a Jet Red Gold in their pocket.
The Vertu Pure Jet Red Gold may be stylish, but its specs are the same as what you’ll find in several of their other handsets. That said, it has plenty of power with a Snapdragon 801 and 2GB of RAM and you’ll have plenty of storage with 64GB. Other features to note include wireless charging, hi-fi speakers, a 13MP rear camera and a 4.7-inch FHD display covered in Sapphire crystal.



As for the extras, you will get 1-2 months concierge service along with access to their “Life” and “Certainty” programs. A few of the perks from those programs include VIP sporting event packages, Silent Circle communication services and access to private members clubs. The titanium and leather design with the Red Gold accents scream luxury as well.
If you have a whole lot of extra cash lying around or just really love smartphones, the Vertu Pure Jet Red Gold can be yours for $23,100. It’s still cheaper than some of the gold and diamond encrusted devices we’ve seen in the past, but it’s certainly not going to be a device for everyone.

For those unfamiliar with the name Vertu, they are a British manufacturer of luxury, handmade mobile phones…established in 1998 by the Finnish manufacturer of Nokia.  They were subsequently sold to a private equity group but retained a 10-percent share.  By the end of 2013, Vertu has sold 350,000 devices and seem to be most popular in Russia, Asia and the Middle East.  The idea was if people are willing to spend $20,000 for a watch, why not a handcrafted smartphone.  Vertu refers to them as “mobile communications instruments,” not simply mobile phones.  While they make their own models, they also produce limited edition devices and have collaborated with the likes of Ferrari and Bentley.  While there is no questioning the quality of the workmanship, their specifications are usually ‘yesterday’s news.’



Vertu’s latest model belongs to their Signature Touch collection, will run you $23,100 and is aptly named, Pure Jet Red Gold.  It has solid red gold features, including the volume control keys, power/lock key and on the pillow support.  The main body is made out of Grade 5 titanium coated in black PVD and wrapped in black calf leather, “from the Alpine region of Europe and crafted by one of the oldest tanneries.”  Its design makes a bold and beautiful statement…which is exactly what it is supposed to do.

The Pure Jet Red Gold model uses only “world-renowned” companies such as Bang & Olufsen (B&O) for its sound components, Hasselblad for its camera, Qualcomm for its processor and even the ring tones are produced by the London Symphony Orchestra.  They offer 24-hour worldwide concierge service, exclusive access to cultural events and 24/7 remote access technical support and Kaspersky anti-virus and anti-theft protection.
As far as technical aspects – it has a 4.7-inch FHD sapphire crystal display with 473 pixels-per-inch (PPI).  It uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 quad-core processor clocked at 2.3GHz and 64GB of internal memory.  It sports a 13MP main camera with autofocus and dual-LED flash.  The front-facing camera (FFC) is 2.1MP for video chatting.  It also comes with 13mm x 18mm stereo high fidelity speakers with built-in Dolby Digital Plus surround sound support.  The battery is 2275mAh and is Qi compatible for wireless charging.  It comes with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, NFC support and a microUSB port.  It is running on Android 4.4 KitKat.
