B&O collaborated with Vertu

Still, $10,000 for a mobile phone is absolutely ludicrous when you can spend the same amount of money for a nice set of B&O speakers or television. A mobile phone is not jewelry. It is an item that gets lost, dropped, banged up and replaced for obsolescence every couple of years. That being said, I wish I was in the position to be able to afford one.
Even if I could afford one I wouldn't buy it
OK - some may like the design... But it seems like some people like to buy big, ugly, expensive wristwatches - or rediculous expensive mobile phones, just to show they can afford it...👍
My B&O Icons:
Vertu, the manufacturer of tarted up Nokias, with absolutely zero feature set to differentiate them from mundane phones other than whale foreskin cases???
LOL - B&O are losing their way. I thought this new CEO was turning things around?
Why are you bashing against Vertu which is a luxury company like B&O, too?
Why do you buy a television that costs 10 times the price of any other realy good tv sets and complaining on the other side about a luxury phone maker?
That does not fit...
Vertu is not about the features (except the concierge service), it's about the whole quality of the handset. Perhaps you should inform yourself a bit before bashing against!
They tested the phones in a german TV show and during the test they laid down a Vertu phone on the concrete and drove over it with a car. After that they picked up the phone and continued the call without any sign of damage!
Believe me:
After you touched a Vertu phone every other phone on the planet will feel like cheap trash from! I visited a Vertu store in Cannes and I was simply stunned about the build quality!
It's just a phone, yes, and a B&O TV is just a TV... think about it.

You mean like on the "Show us your..." threads 👍
I've seen them in person and remain underwhelmed. If I wanted a phone to survive the apocalypse, I'd go for a milspec model. Vertu handsets are this:
- well constructed
- antiquated interfaces
- bring nothing new to the table (you can get similar concierge services with AMEX Black)
I happen to find the current crop of B&O TVs underwhelming too.
If you want to spend your money on it, go ahead, I'm not stopping you 😁

Of course Amex black is by invitation only.

Very well said. People have different taste and desires about what they want to spend their money on. Many people, even people on this supposed B and O fan site, think paying B and O prices for B and O is ridiculous. A product's worth is determined by the purchaser and what it is worth to them.
There's no tangible worth to a Vertu phone.
B&O even mixing up with them is a shame.
