several polls ranging from toothpaste to mobile phones.
Old Father Bunny told me that blogging is “cool” and even if their “audience” is limited and obscure, ROI is always positive. Specially CPI ratio.
I really don’t care about that, but I got mad when I read this and that one.
Fortunately yesterday I received a parcel from Vertu and a nice letter fron the CEO:
Dear Miffa,
We have sent you a new phone […] the leather we have
Vertu mobile CEO
used is a softer version of that used to cover your Aston Martin seats,
provides that everyday use requires softer feeling, but the same quality and
pedigree.
So here’s my review about the new Vertu Signature:
In a very competitive environment, where external signs are visually watched and recognised, on the fly one must be over the rest.
Definitely a good tan, a good figure and – of course- several luxury items will help you to be the super Queen of every situation.
Vertu phones are the most exclusive, more expensive ones available. If you’re thinking about Nokia N series you’re wrong.
No camera, no tech that no one uses, just luxury, materials, exclusivity. ¿Who wants a Casio watch with lot of functions if you can buy a Patek?
Vertu phones use the same leather hat my Aston Martin does, and this is just a guarantee
The post revisited in 2023
Back in 2008 blogging was an activity that created the influencer profession and if you have enough visits you could get free stuff to review, nothing or little have changed from then.
Except Nokia and Vertu had a tragic end
About Vertu
Vertu was the luxury mobile phone brand owned by Nokia.
In a world where smartphones are ubiquitous, Vertu offered a luxury mobile phone experience that was second to none. With exquisite materials, high-end features, and a hefty price tag, Vertu phones were the epitome of extravagance.
However, despite its early success, the brand was unable to sustain its position and eventually met its demise.
Key facts about Vertu
- Vertu was founded in 1998 as Nokia’s luxury mobile phone brand
- The brand was known for its use of premium materials, exclusive services, and high-end features
- Vertu phones were endorsed by celebrities and collected by enthusiasts
- However, the arrival of smartphones and the failure to adapt to changing market trends led to the brand’s decline. The brand also struggled with poor business decisions and a shift away from luxury goods towards experiences.
- Vertu was eventually acquired by a private equity firm, but the company filed for bankruptcy in 2017
- The assets of Vertu were subsequently auctioned off, marking the end of the luxury mobile phone brand
