As most of you know by now, the Vertu Constellation doesn’t have the eye-popping engine configuration of today’s high-end smartphones. Instead, it makes do with a 1.7GHz dual-core processor with 1GB of RAM and a non-expandable 32GB of internal storage.

But what it may lack in processing power, it compensates for the premium materials that make up its body. This consists of a Grade 5 Titanium chassis, a sheet of 100-carat Sapphire Crystal laid on top of the phone’s front panel, a set of buttons made of Ruby and a Calfskin-covered posterior.
