Title: Vertu Metavertu is a new "Web3" smartphone that can be configured to cost US$41,500
Post by: Redaktion on October 25, 2022, 20:27:57
The luxury-focused smartphone brand Vertu has adopted Web3 with the new Metavertu handset. It sports a number of 'normal' flagship-grade features such as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1-powered device and a large FHD+ AMOLED display, yet purports to augment them with features such as a "secure chip" for the user's blockchain activities, not to mention a choice of premium finishes that include an alligator leather rear panel that pushes the Metavertu's USD asking price into five figures.

You know what else can be configured to $41.5k? A really nice car that will last you a lot longer and be of infinite more use.

If one of these things has an actual customer base more than a 100, maybe the company could get a custom SoC made for that kind of price. Instead of using a boring old Snapdragon 8 Gen 1.

No one is buying a phone that costs this much when EOL ona phone is a mere 15-2 years.
