It’s not the first time we come across a crypto phone, nor is it the first time we see a really ‘spensive diamond crusted blingalicious mobile either. It is however, the first such phone to combine both attributes that we’ve seen. And strangely enough, it seem to have been out for over a year. Anyone heard of it already?
The $1.3 million piece has been designed by Austrian jeweler Peter Aloisson for a Moscow based company, JSC Ancort. It features 50 diamonds (10 of them blue) and comes in either white or pink gold. And if you happen to have another really rich buddy with a taste for gaudy phones, you two can have completely encrypted conversations; and probably the undivided attention of some folk at the NSA.
