Nokia 230 24K gold plating
We understand the urge to have your
flagship LG V10 gold-plated, and the gold bath adds an extra bit of flair to
curved-body Samsung high-end models Galaxy S6 edge and Note5. But what about
that Nokia 230 that you keep in your car's glove box for backup, or use as a
secondary phone for basic needs?
Now Vietnamese specialists in the field
of luxury customization Karalux can have the 230 gold-plated in 24K yellow gold
too, to match your smartphone attire. Assuming that once you're
looking into gold-plating, you have a smartphone to boot, but even if the
unassuming Nokia feature phone is your primary means of communication, at VND
1,500,000 (US$ 67) the treatment is still a bargain.
That's the price if you bring in your
own Nokia 230, but for VND 2,800,000 (US$ 125) the company will happily pull a
ready gold-plated one off its store shelves. So in effect, the gold-plating
costs more than the phone itself. But who's to say that you can't have some
bling just because you refuse to be bothered with constant notifications and
want a battery life longer than a day.
