RIM’s BlackBerry has come a long way in the years since its introduction as a two-way pager in 1999. Known for its push e-mail feature, the BlackBerry series held a place among the elite smartphones before anyone had even heard of an iPhone.
If that doesn’t scream “Cover it in diamonds,” well, I don’t know what does.
Amosu BlackBerry Pearl Diamond Edition – $88,000
Amosu released their BlackBerry Pearl Diamond Edition in 2008. The diamonds used to make this particular phone were recyclable—owners could have them refit to their next BlackBerry when the Pearl became obsolete. The Amosu BlackBerry even came with a year of access to an exclusive concierge service allowing purchasers to enjoy a variety of luxury services.
Amosu Curva Diamond BlackBerry – $191,000
Not one to rest on his laurels, Alexander Amosu has created a brand new exclusive BlackBerry customization. The Amosu Curva is covered in 4,494 brilliant cut VS1 diamonds totalling about 28.42 carats set in a coat of 18-karat gold. The best part, though, is that only three of these luxury smartphones will ever be made. Each purchaser will have the option of having their name engraved on the back. Like Amosu’s previous offering, Amosu Curva owners will enjoy a free year-long global concierge service in 44 cities.
Knalihs Athem BlackBerry Bold Limited Diamond Edition – ???
Swiss luxury designer Knalihs Athem has also created a suitably expensive BlackBerry. Each Knalihs Athem BlackBerry Bold Limited Diamond Edition is customized with the buyer’s choice of pink, yellow, black, champagne and white diamonds. The back of the phone is also customized with leather, crocodile or snake skin, or denim—each available in at least two different colors. Of course, it also has all the standard features of the BlackBerry Bold. Unfortunately, the price of Knalihs Athem’s expensive BlackBerry seems to have been filed under “If you have to ask, you’ll never know.”

for some reason i hate blackberrys and who needs a phone that damn expensive. I mean come on all you need is txting and calling unless you're a business person you may need internet, or GPS. Thats a waste of money
unfortunately, i cant afford that cp…its more than 4 million in my money..wwuwuw.. 4 car here a cost of one cp..???? oh my goodness
first submitt advance of 1 million
Blackberries like these are pretty much just ways for rich people to show off how rich they are.îŽ I mean, just WHO needs this stuff?!
yeah? so what i have a blackberry? i let my dad cover it with different jewles like diamonds, rubies, emeralds…… and its worth it, it made me popular in school
Hmm, a phone with diamonds made you popular? Wow I bet those are some gereat friends
I have used everything from motorola to htc (windows mobile smart phones) and i have had two Blackberries in the last year. I think Blackberry software works the best of everything i have seen, and as for covering it in diamonds? if you can afford to spend the money, hey thats their own thing. A bently will get you to the same places a honda will, but the question is, can a honda do it in style like a bentley? hell no
yello i think these prices are so stupid i would never buy somethin that costs so much money
pece out dudes
i have 35 covers and 4 of them are covered with diamonds. i hav 8 bb's and im 14
yay for you, nobody cares
spoilt brat.

Here's a little F.Y.I. for the two of you. People who are rich do not have to brag, or give themselves a false sense of self-worth. Similarily, people who are not rich and try to act rich need to make themselves feel better so they pretend. If you two immature, childish, pety, little kids want to pretend, go buy some beads and pretend they're diamonds and a nice fake fur coat to complete the look. I feel sorry that you need to do that.
Anyways, about Blackberries. They are good for business people but now a days its all teenagers who have them. I can't criticize though, I have a BB Curve. But really, I only got it for the Blackberry Messenger; I know about one hundred plus people who have BBM including my girlfriend. If not for that feature, I probably would have got an everyday, average phone.
Later.
I got me a blackberry. Only reason is I got a 100 doller rebate. I covered it in tin foil to make it looked all cromed out. Took plastic fake dimonds off rings I got out of them quarter deals at the grocery store and put it on there. Well not really. I thought I can post stupid crap on a web site to look cool.oh I’m 23 and not 14. But I do have a BB. And its going to look the same as I bought it.
Hey, who really needs a phone like that??? No when they say it’s the most expensive phone they just mean it has the most diamonds…. You can buy a nicer looking phone for a whole lot cheaper… People who buy these are wasteful with their money. STOP BUYING THOSE STUPID FANCY PHONES AND SPEND IT ON SOMETHING WORTH DOING!
I hav a bbm storm and a tour…..iz realy wndrful mobile…..got it for a biz purpse.
why do dey do dis hu? wat a waist of money!!!!!!!!
i might as well spend the money on diamond jewellery than a diamond fone….and as far as ppl go buying fones to flaunt it….i think whats more eye catching is ur personality rather than ur fone…..n yaa….this person who became famous in her school could hv achieved the same fame by doing something humane……i hv a nokia xpress music 5800 n i think its class apart to a blackberry……has all the features u need including facebook n offcourse….ITS WORTH THE PRICE…UNLIKE A BB
these are sooo cuteee! I just got a diamond covered case, its amazing
its jst a blackbery with diamonds u dnt need a phone like that
i have a samsung,a blackberry and a vertu. all covered in diamonds and gold so what if u dont have it dose not make u any less human.it all just for the swagga nothing more.

hahaa.! i like it very much.1 it’s actually a BLACKBERRY.!!blackberries are to expensive.! and for my birthday next week.! mah grandparents will buy a phoe like that.!hahaha.. i so love it..!
I need a phone for buisness so i got a blackberry bold and now i was searching for a nother blackberry and the prices are shocking not even i can buy it i got my blackberry for R3000 and it does excelent!
balckberrys are rubbishh !!
The pink one is beautiful but way too expensive. I would get it if it was cheaper.
THEY ARE CHEASY
Blackberry is nice but if I can contact the management, I will sugeet to them to use this opportunity to gain access to the market like Nokia dis and remain stable.
I own a BlackBerry Curve 8520, and I'm quite content with my 'Keep calm and carry on' case.Surely holding one of these diamond-encrusted cases would dig in to your palms? It's hardly pratical either for day-to-day phone use.
i love black berrys i have got one jst like the one pink ne i love themmmmmmmmmmmmmmm:)
apparently blackberrys are have a nickname crackberry and are verry adictive
that blackberry costs more than my life seriously just because of diamonds still inside its still gonna be the same right ???so that means its not gonna be that fun
I am going to have one soon pretty excited.
Forget this, vertu is where it's at :p
