Vertu have always been known for making super expensive stuff that is way behind in keeping pace with anyone.
It's basically a 'look how much money I have' phone.
Your spoilt in the states with your $199 iPhone contract deals.
Even a 64gb iPhone 5 will cost up-to 500 ($672) on a 24 month contract here...
I've just paid 650 ($873) for an unlocked 16gb Xperia Z....
My 64Gb iPhone 5 unlocked was 899 ($1208).................
I see you're point
I forgot how the cost structure is so different in Europe.
Virgin and T-Mobile and trying to change that by charging full price for an iPhone here and then have a reduced monthly plan but so far for Virgin that's been a bust (may be other factors for them) and T-Mo hasn't rolled that out - they're just talking about it.
Good grief people, there's no such thing as an Android phone. Android is the kernel, NOT the phone.
