Lanes!

No really, I cannot. They say a picture is worth 1000 words so this will have to suffice. What more can be said about the Nairobi Senator who recently purchased a gold phone known as the Vertu which retails at 22,000$?

Maybe we can talk about how it feels to use such a phone. RICH!

Or perhaps you want me to talk about how the phone performs when stacked up against the iPhone 6? Then let me try my hand at that then. The phones performance is WEALTH.

With Vertu finally offering an up-to-date luxury phone, we naturally had to check out the Signature Touch up close and personal. After all, it's not everyday that one gets to play with a $21,900 phone for free (though you can do so at any Vertu boutique, as long as you're nicely dressed). For those who haven't caught up with the announcement, we're looking at a 4.7-inch 1080p display, a 2.3GHz quad-core Snapdragon 801 chip, 64GB of storage, 13MP/2.1MP cameras, a 2,275mAh battery, Qi wireless charging, NFC and a handful of LTE bands. With the exception of the battery (which, to be fair, is already much larger than those on previous models), these are all very decent for an Android 4.4 device.
