This Caviar variant’s price range is $12,770-$15,360. Gold is the main reason why, of course. Caviar is well-known for re-releasing popular smartphones covered by gold and other luxury materials.
This smartphone is a part of Caviar’s ‘Rich Colors’ collection, and there are two models available, Black Dragon and Gold Dragon. Black Dragon & Gold Dragon models have been announced The Black Dragon model is actually inspired by teh Xuanlong Dragon from the Chinese mythology. It is wrapped in black crocodile leather so that it resembles the scales of the Xuanlong Dragon.
Gold-placed details are also included, of course. The Gold Dragon model, on the flip side, is almost entirely covered by 24K gold. Its surface sports an interesting texture, a texture of imperial swords crafted in the Chinese city of Longquan.
