The Gresso Radical Has a Strong and Extremely Durable Titanium Body
Laura McQuarrie — January 5, 2014 — Tech
The luxe Gresso Radical phone is one that costs a staggering $2,000 to purchase, but considering the materials and the process used to make it, it’s one phone that could last you a lifetime.
The body of the phone is made from a single titanium plate—that takes nine hours for even the most hi-tech machine to mill. After this, the metal is polished for four hours by hand. Alike the rest of the body, the phone’s menu buttons are also made out of titanium.
The inner workings of the phone consist of an Android 4.1.2 operating system with quad-core processing. Customizations can be made to the Gresso Radical, such as the inclusions of an 18k white or yellow Gresso emblem. The production of the Gresso Radical phones will not exceed 999 models.
