The world’s most expensive iPhone 5 worth $15 million sports a large flawless black diamond


The Apple iPhone 5 is one of those smartphones that usually stays atop nearly everybody’s wishlist. Recently, we had the pleasure of stumbling across this beautifully overhauled iPhone 5, crafted by hand by Liverpool-based Stuart Hughes. Crowned as the world’s most expensive phone, this device is an iPhone 5 with a recreated chassis. The body of the phone is chiseled from solid gold and was made completely by hand. What sets this beauty apart from the luxury overhauled phones we’ve come across before is the flawless black single deep cut black diamond embedded in it, weighing in at 26 cts! It gives a whole new meaning to the home button.
