Cell Phone World

Until recently, the vast majority of mobiles had been priced between £100 and £300, with only Vertu, a division of Nokia, manufacturing uber-premium phones. With prices starting at around £4,000 Vertu phones are only for the filthy rich, and the super famous.

However, Vertu’s monopoly of the luxury phone market is coming to an end with the launch of several new luxury mobile makers, including Gresso, Mobiado and GoldVish. Other mobile phone manufacturers are also partnering with luxury brands to produce a range of premium mobile phones, such as LG and Prada, D&G and Motorola, and now Tag Heuer and Modelabs. Finally, there are the ridiculous, super-expensive one-offs, made purely for headline grabbing, such as Goldvish’s “Le million”, worth a cool $1,000,000, see below for details!

The HTC Mogul (VX6800)

The HTC Mogul (VX6800) is a pocket pc cellular phone that runs on Windows Mobile for Pocket PCs 6.0 operating system and a QUALCOMM MSM7500, 384 MHz processor. The Mogul PDA phone is designed to replace its ancestor, HTC PPC-6700/XV-6700 PDA phone that was offered by Sprint previously. Since the HTC Mogul is powered by Windows Mobile operating system, it comes preloaded with full suite of office applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and Internet Explorer). Besides that, your familiar Windows Media player is also preloaded in the VX6800 phone.

Other features include Wi-Fi support, 2.0-MegaPixel digital camera and video recorder, QWERTY keyboard, and Stereo Bluetooth output. However, the major disappointment over the HTC Mogul PDA is it doesn’t have built-in GPS navigation system.
