Mobiado Teams Up With Aston Martin For Branded Grand Touch Luxury Smartphone

19

Mobiado is at it again, this time collaborating with Aston Martin to brand their luxury Grand Touch smartphone (a glorified Nexus S) with the car makers logo and design. The — admittedly sexy — exterior is precision CNC machined from a single block of airplane grade aluminum, and comes in either bare metal or black anodized finishes. Another model is also available that uses high-end solid brass with rose/yellow gold if you prefer something a little more… blingy. Just underneath that aluminum or metal surface (in that side crack there) is either ebony wood or mother of pearl (really?) and the screen is housed in sapphire crystal to prevent scratches. These bad boys are sold unlocked for an undisclosed price. Make it a Galaxy Nexus, a little thinner and I think I would take 1 in every color.

I've been obsessed with consumer technology for about as long as I can remember, be it video games, photography, or mobile devices. If you can plug it in, I have to own it. Preparing for the day when Android finally becomes self-aware and I get to welcome our new robot overlords.
