How to make the most expensive smartphone in the world Source:

Vertu was established in 1998 as a division of Nokia for the production of the most expensive and high-quality mobile phones in the world — devices premium. Designers Nokia tried to answer the question, what happens if you use the best materials and the very expensive production process, and created the company, gadgets which to this day are indicators of wealth and status in society.

Vertu Subsequently received a "free" Nokia became fully independent, and then started manufacturing mobile phones with Android operating system on Board. Needless to say, that so far are the most expensive Vertu mobile phones on Android. All devices were assembled almost entirely by hand at the factory, located in the suburbs of London. In the same building was placed by designers, engineers, and employees of the company.

Although in July 2017, the government announced the closure of production facilities in Britain in October last year, a Cyprus company Baferton, the current owner of the brand, has announced a new device under the brand Vertu. It's interesting to see how and where he produced the most expensive smartphone in the world.

How to produce Vertu

The Famous logo in the form of the Latin letter "V" that adorns the front door of the building was created before the company got its name. According to the chief designer of Vertu, the logo represents the style and beauty that inspired it in the process of creating new products. To avoid similarities with the logo of the automobile company Mazda, the letter "V" later became a little wider, and for its decoding was used the word Vertu, which translated from Latin means "perfect".

The factory has two wings. In the right are located the administration offices and facilities designers, and the left — the departments of production and delivery. So sometimes you literally can see one of the collectors right beside the reception Desk.

Each employee of the production Department wears a special robe, made of unique materials.

Upstairs located managers and executives Vertu, whereas the lower floors are fully occupied by the departments of the Assembly, testing and packaging of mobile phones. Space with expensive materials are securely protected with doors with a thickness of 10 inches, is made of 15 high-strength materials.

Perhaps Henry Ford would have criticized top managers of the company, but Vertu there are no lines. For the production of each phone is responsible only one employee performing the Assembly of the mobile device from beginning to end. At the end of production on the phone engraved c signature of the employee.

Vertu is not trusted to perform basic tasks to machines, considering that a person can deal with them in better times.

Each item undergoes strict quality control. If collectors are not satisfied with at least something, produce it again.

Collectors remember almost every device.

The smallest detail Vertu will not get lost in your palm.

Built phone immediately sent for tests, so that employees could verify it operates correctly. Learning the skill of the Builder can take from three months to one year. But even if you hone it to perfection, you still will never be able to repeat the process blindly. It is incredibly complex. Packaging phone in a box — one of the most important stages. After all, this is the first thing the buyer sees.

Retail price for such boxes with phones and cases of crocodile leather is more than 25 thousand euros.

With the advent of iPhone, Vertu has become less popular among the "stars" of the world of show business, but now these phones find their buyers. Basically, Vertu use conservative millionaires/billionaires, and the company tries to fix it by following youth trends: for example, started producing Android phones. And once the human need to demonstrate their wealth and superiority becoming stronger, Vertu is unlikely to become bankrupt, although the company isn't going well. At least not yet.
