Canadian luxury buffs on the Mobiado churning obscenely expensive (not to mention improperly designed) phones since 2004, and if you were to look at them, one thing becomes immediately clear: none of them worth the price. Dumbphones are swathed in gold and Pearl inlay dumbphones yet, after all.

Slightly curved screen is a bit of a giveaway, but things like port placement and the number of fixed internal memory (16 GB) to close the deal.
