Vertu is going to release the Ascent Ti Carbon Fiber. The new cell phone will be made entirely from carbon fiber, which is used in motorsport and space industry, because of it’s qualities the carbon fiber is very strong and very light material.
Vertu is owned by Nokia and that is a proof for design and quality. The look of this cell phone is just amazing. A diagonal rib design is achieved by using a twill carbon fiber weave process. Vertu Ascent was inspired from the cars – power, precision and energy.
The phone also has a sapphire crystal screen and a chassis made of high-grade titanium — a non-corrosive element.
The company’s Carbon Fiber Collection will also include the Carbon Fiber Grip, Carbon Fiber & Aluminum Grip and Carbon Fiber & Copper Grip devices.
Vertu phones are not simple mobile gadgets. Each model is a complete, independent masterpiece. The creators of the Vertu phones use expensive materials.
All Vertu phones are handmade as it is traditionally done in jewelry producing companies. The fact that all Vertu phones are handmade explains the small number of the produced phones and their exclusiveness.
