If you go to the Apple website and examine the iPhone 11 Pro Max 512 GB you will see that its price of 1,659 euros is prohibitive, but surprisingly this is not the most expensive iPhone we can buy. In fact there is one that is 15 times more expensive . Of course, its design and materials could well be worth every penny more than it costs. How this device? How much does it cost exactly? Keep reading because we tell you everything.
An iPhone designed for the few
If you have won the lottery or are so lucky to be able to win thousands of euros a day and you want to treat yourself, you may be interested in this version of the iPhone 11 Pro Max with 512 GB of storage covered in… 18 karat gold! Packaged by the London Assay Office and marketed by Goldgenie , a company based in the British capital and in Dubai, this device can be yours for the exact amount of € 15,521.55 .
The phone is made to order, since it does not have a price that can be assumed by anyone. It only has versions in 256 GB and 512 GB, the smallest being the one with a lower price. Within these you can order with the Apple logo made with diamonds or not, which also raises the price. In any case, they are not very accessible mobiles for everyone, but the result of a whim that only the highest elites can afford.
This Goldgenie collection is defined as a team treated with care, first deconstructed before bathing it in a delicate layer of solid metal with solid gold. It has the GG Hallmark hallmark of quality, which certifies that the precious metal used is authentic genuine gold. Despite not specifically specifying the weight of this device, it is said that it is not too heavy compared to the original version of Apple.
Are there changes to your benefits?
Beyond the aesthetic terrain, which is already very striking in itself, we would find an iPhone exactly like the normal versions . That is, the same processor, same cameras, same versions of iOS, etc. The packaging is original from jewelers, but inside we find identical chargers, cables, user guides and even the legendary EarPods for listening to music.
What we do not know for sure is the issue of the guarantee . We understand that having been tampered with previously you will have lost your legal guarantee with Apple, but the selling company will take care of any problems that may arise both with the gold material that covers the phone and with software and hardware problems. It is not for less considering the money that would have to be invested in this phone, since it would not be the cheapest store to repair an iPhone.
This same company markets other electronic products with similar gold-plated. In this way we could find other iPhone models, but also iPad and Apple Watch. It is evident that we will not be able to testify how it feels to use this phone and, unfortunately, neither you who are reading this will be able to buy it safely. But it is at least curious, since the phone we have talked about is the most expensive iPhone that is marketed today. There may be some other jewelry you can trust to personalize your phone with diamonds and other precious materials, but in the end it would be about custom customization and not something you already buy pre-set.
