The iPhone 4S Elite Gold is the cream of the crop when it comes to smartphones. Touted as the world's most expensive phone, it is worth a mind-boggling $9.4 million. Considering that it is made by the same person who brought us the iPad 2 Gold History Edition worth $8.5 million and Victoria Beckham's coveted $35,400 iPhone, it is only natural that the iPhone 4S Elite Gold surpass them both.
Stuart Hughes' indulgent phone is handmade out of rose gold with 500 individual flawless diamonds. It comes in a chest made out of platinum bedazzled with rare stones and even polished pieces of original T-Rex bones. Only two models of the ultra-luxurious iPhone 4S Elite Gold models were made.
