Tonino Lamborghini's 88 Tauri phone is leather, steel... and $6,300
Having a lot of money entitles you to buy expensive things, but fast cars or Bel Air mansions aren't the only ways you can showcase your wealth. Companies like Vertu and Tonino Lamborghini make smartphones for people with -- let's be honest -- more money than sense, and because I have neither, industry events are my only opportunities to check them out. And it's at just such an event that I've come across Tonino Lamborghini's latest smartphone, the 88 Tauri. Crafted from calfskin leather and "automotive-grade" stainless steel, it's big, heavy and basically exactly what you'd expect a $6,300 status symbol to be. This particular model, as you can see, is a blue and gold number, but there are three finishes of metal and five colors of cowskin to choose from. But why limit yourself? Might as well get one of each.
