Get a Diamond-Encrusted iPhone 4 for Just $20,000




We’ll take two, thanks!

These gaudy gadgets come unlocked “for worldwide use” and absolutely sparkling with 6.5 carats of VVS quality, F-color diamonds and a complimentary carrying case made of ostrich foot. The back of the device features a solid platinum and diamond version of the Apple logo.

You can order one now from jeweler/gadget-monger Stuart Hughes — but order quickly, as only 50 of these devices will be made.

This latest foray into luxury goods of indubitable opulence and questionable taste calls to mind a similarly bedecked iPad which surfaced in March. This device features 11.43 carats of hand-set, micro-pave diamonds and retails for a mere $19,999.

If diamonds alone aren’t your thing, you could also go for this gold-covered iPad, which we found back in May. Or, you could spring for the $3 million jewel-sprinkled, solid gold 3GS Stuart Hughes rolled out last fall.

As humble journalists, we find that the Stuart Hughes version of the iPhone 4 is just outside the realm of our summer toys fund; we can, however, recommend an excellent gadget for those who would have bling on a budget. It’s called a Bedazzler, and it’s iPhone and Android compatible. You’re welcome.



What do you think: Is this take on the iPhone 4 a bit much — in terms of aesthetics, price, or both?
