Android is becoming an ever so popular OS amongst the masses.  With this raging popularity the ultra rich & famous want a little droid action too.  A company know as Ulysse Nardin has decided to take on that niche market of luxury super expensive phones.  This market has has not seen any smartphone OS action and as a result companies like Goldvish and Vertu have started to dominate this market. This is where Ulysse Nardin, a famous ultra luxurious Swiss watch manufacturing company, has decided to start dabbling in the mobile phone market. The phone, which is called the “Chairman“, is Android based, and has some pretty nice amenities.

Chairman Smartphone specifications:

With these specs  it is certain that any ‘Chairman’ will find himself pretty entertained at the next dictatorship meeting. Oh and the pricing of this phone starts at around $13,000 and goes all the way up to $50,000, due in part to the the different exotic metals they use in crafting the device. Being luxurious comes at a price I guess.
