Ok it looks and feels expensive but featurewise it's in for a rough match even compared to the cheapest pre-paid handsets and that to a price over GBP 10.000
I haven't seen one in live, does anyone know if Vertu is a hit or a flop?
Posted by buckle247
it looks huge, like my tv remote controle. What are the actual dimensions for it? Crap IMO!
Posted by milmino
looks really wierd but im sure pressing the keys feels good and solid. Whats so good about it anyway?
Posted by Mrb 18
42mm x 122mm x 15.5mm So it is rather large but maybe thats good so that everybody else can see how expensive phone you got!!
What is supposed to be so good about it? It has to be the expensive materials it is made out of but for me that can't justify the lack of numerous key features...

You're absolutely right...

Yup Maybach is the lux ver of Daimler Benz, which makes Mercedes Benz cars.
Posted by jplacson
Hey guys! At least Maybach has the performance to back it up!
The Vertu is as great as a solid gold Kia Pride... would cost an arm and a leg... but in the end... is a really DUMB idea.
Kinda like gold plating a 486 laptop and bragging about it to everyone.

Bentley = VW
Rolls Royce = BMW
