Gear Diary reviews the Vertu Ascent Ti

I found something today I never thought I’d find, a user review of a $7,000 phone. Yep, you read that right, the Vertu Ascent Ti is about $7,000 and Gear Diary has an owner submitted review of one. It looks a bit big but pretty nice as it should for that much money. So do they think it’s worth it? Check it out and see. I’m going to be waiting for their review of the Tag Heuer Meridiist phone next.

I have held a Vertu phone in my hands and I have to say it did feel very “special”, but that was about it…

Hi James,

Only $7,000? Sorry, but that’s definitely for the cheapskates. The poseurs who think they are making a good impression but really aren’t up to snuff. I spit on your Vertu!

There are a variety of more expensive phones. For example, how about the GoldVish for $1.2 million?

If it’s half as good as my Nokia E90 then it’s well worth the price!
