For those who think the new iPhone 16 isn’t unique enough, there’s now a new option to make yourself stand out from the crowd. A luxury mobile phone company from Dubai has given Apple’s iPhone a particularly precious and expensive coat.
Starting today, customers can not only pre-order the various versions of the iPhone 16 directly on Apple’s official website, but also through many other merchants in Germany. However, there is one smartphone version that is exclusively available from one seller, Caviar International, a luxury mobile phone manufacturer from Dubai. Here, they launched three different models of the gold version of the iPhone.
As shown on the company’s website, particularly discerning iPhone enthusiasts can purchase an exclusive “Art and Gold” edition of the phone, which has a glass back replaced with gold-plated metal.
Available in Symphony (rose gold), Summit (gold) and Dome (silver-gold) colours, the phone’s precious metal coating is made of 24-carat gold and is decorated with patterns that, according to the manufacturer, are inspired by modern art and art deco.
All three versions can be ordered as iPhone Pro or Pro Max with storage options provided by Apple. The 128GB iPhone Pro usually costs 1,199 euros (about 9,500 yuan). However, for the gold-plated version, buyers need to pay a higher price. At Caviar International, customers need to pay about 10,800 euros (about 85,000 yuan), depending on the color variant.
For those who find the gold coating too tacky, there is also the option of a phone made entirely of 18K gold. Such an iPhone 16 Pro Max with 1TB of storage costs about 64,000 euros (about 503,300 yuan). With this money, you can almost buy 33 ordinary devices with the same specifications directly in the Apple Store. And according to the website information, these products still do not seem to offer free shipping.
