Vertu Aster

An ultra luxury smartphone with a powerful processor

From its hand brushed sound bar with concentric racetrack detailing, to its hand-polished ruby key that calls the concierge, this Vertu model makes an impressive style statement. Its 4.7-inch full high definition 437 dots per inch screen is protected by a single 117 carat 5.1 inch piece of 5th generation solid sapphire crystal. The Vertu Aster’s body is of hardened titanium, with an exquisite leather trim. And it weighs just under 200 gm.

The Aster features a super fast Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 Quad Core processor running at 2.3 GHz, and Android 4.4, Kit Kat version.

The Aster has 64 GB of internal storage, and a battery that gives 15 hours of talk time. With Quad Band GSM, LTE and dual band WiFi, you don’t have to worry about connectivity. To recharge its battery, the Aster uses a microAB USB connector, which also supports USB On-The-Go to add external storage.

The Aster comes bundled with a headset, but just in case you are in the mood of taking a call on the speakerphone or just enjoying a movie, its HiFi 11×15 mm stereo speakers support Dolby Digital Plus surround and put out some wonderful acoustics for this small package. There is also Bluetooth 4.0 on board for wireless headsets.

At the back of the phone is a Hasselblad-certified 13 megapixel camera with twin flashes, while the front features a 2.1 megapixel camera for those video calls or selfies.

With the Aster, you get access to Vertu Life that gets you access to invitation-only events, closed door shopping experiences and exclusive clubs meant only for the elite.
