Motorola Aura – luxury phone with the first circular display
Blimey. Sometimes stuff leaks very very early, other times you don’t see it till it’s nearly out. This certainly falls into the latter category. It’s a more-than-a-little-ridiculous new phone from Motorola. “Luxury” doesn’t come close – this phone has more than 700 individual components, a 62-carat sapphire crystal lens, and the world’s first 16 million colour, circular display with 300 dpi resolution.
I’m feeling a little breathless right now, so here’s what Motorola has to say about the device:
Combining superb craftsmanship and a distinctive interface, AURA delivers a sensory experience that is second to none for those with refined tastes. From the moment AURA owners pick up their devices, they elevate their own experience in luxury and unmatched quality.

You could try and get a posh mobile phone… but then, the fanciest phone on the market is the iPhone, and even paupers can afford one of those these days. You need something else to really set yourself apart from the riff-raff.
There’s a new application available for the iPhone called “I am Rich”. It’ll set you back $1000 and it does… absolutely nothing…
Toshiba entices the rich kids with the invitation-only Cosmic Shiner
The luxury handset is big business these days – and Toshiba is chasing a piece of the action with its Cosmic Shiner…
Proof that money can't buy you fashion sense, Brandish looks at rich geeks' fashion don'ts
Any excuse for a photo of Bill Gates to appear on these pages, phwroar! But there’s a reason, and it’s not a pretty sight. Yup, Ben over at Brandish, our mens’ fashion site, has done a top five of the worst dressed rich geeks this planet (un)fortunately has, and believe me, it’s a nasty sight.
Featuring Richard Branson, Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg, Steve Jobs, and that other porky Steve from Apple that looks like your lechy uncle, Ben’s top five is a hilarious run-through of their fashion don’ts…
