8. Bang & Olufsen (Samsung) Serene = $1,250 (£675) - Yes I could

7. Mobiado Professional EM (wood) = $1,900 (£1,027) - Yes I could

6. Gold Edition Nokia 8800 Phone = $2,700 (£1,459) - Yes I could

5. Motorola V220 Special Edition = £28,000 ($51,800) - I could, but I wouldn't buy one.


and I'm sure many people on here could buy a few of the others but chose not to.

:whistle :p

You couldn't afford to waste that amount of money though smart arse. :salute:

There are special edition Porsche and Ferrari ones which I would buy if I was money stupid. They're beauties. Made by the luxury division of Nokia; Vertu.

A phone is made to communicate with people. Not a fashion accessory

I agree, I'm not one of those people who gets a new one very 5 minutes to keep up with trends.

All the same, if you're filthy rich you need something to spend your money on:

I could the first three in my list and easily too. But yeah i wouldn't because I'm not like that.

I was going to get an O2 XDA Exec sim free for around £800 not many months back. I then moved onto a Nokia N95 sim free at £500.

But I'm happy with my PPC at the moment and it doubles up as my phone but as new ones keep coming out the price of my current one is getting lower and lower.

You wouldn't really have that worry with those i wouldn't have thought.

Your buying into a 'luxury brand' they are likely to be more 'one-offs' i don't think
you'll be able to pick up a lot of them as they wont be mass produced.

it's a load of bollox. If I was rich enough to piss away money on owning an 'exclusive brand' I'd give it to charity.

Calm down :eeek

I was just saying you could buy one and the price would drop at a silly rate.

I'm off out now :bye

Because technically the N95 owns that piece of crap?

None of those ubber expensive phones were anygood - did you look at the technical specs?
Utter rubbish phones encrusted with gold and diamonds - the phones are still crap no matter what you encrust them with.

Yeah, look at that piece of crap...

Is there an Apple Store in Middlesborough?

:laugh:

Actually, the N95 gets raves in every quarter, incl. rabid Apple fanboys...

The Sony Ericson Black Diamond one looks quality. That would be my choice off the top 10 yeah. Would definately not spend that amount of money on a phone though even if i wont 100m on the lottery... i would probably lose it.

I think I'll stick with my N95. Superb phone IMO. Can't wait to upgrade to the black version. :)

how much space for music does it have and it's not touch screen is it?

Only 128mb, but I got a 2GB card for it. The new N95 will have 8GB internal memory.

Who cares about touch screen, messes up the screen.

I bet on the outside they're good, but the technology for half of them is Nokia 3310. iPhone is good though.

Phones really **** me off, And to spend over £150 on one is stupid.

4 phones i've had and each one has ended up being lost or ended up being smashed up.
