This shiny and pretty gold phone is a modified Nokia N95 that’s been decked out in a Buddhist theme. It looks both enlightened and at peace with the universe. This is Buddha bling if I’ve ever seen it. (I don’t believe I have.) It’s got a Buddha on the back, and fancy imagery all over. It’s onboard custom wallpapers and ringtones complete the theme.

It’s pretty awesome looking and if you’re Buddhist, even more awesome I would think. Unfortunately, it’s only in China and not currently available to westerners. Pretty neat. It just goes to show you that cell phones don’t have to be boring and void of personality.

Nokia’s 8800 arte Platinum Snow Fox Edition from Goldstriker is one sleek and sexy phone. It’s not for those who lead an average lifestyle. Just like it’s not for those who are a little light in the checkbook. The phone is enhanced with 40 individually set AAA grade ultra white synthetic diamonds. It will be released on May 1st of this year for £1095. It impressed Goldstriker’s director Katherine Hughes enough to comment “I have been lucky over the last few years to be involved and witness so many different customizations of mobile phones but this handset seems to stand out from the rest. It is for sure the most stunning to date”. I’m not much for AAA grade ultra white synthetic diamonds myself, but like I said it is sexy and certainly makes a statement.
