To be honest? I was surprised to see the news myself and to translate me like this in the past at the sight of the name Vertu. I knew that after several owners, investors from Sweden and then Turkey, they finally arrived in Asia, more precisely in Hong Kong.
The Vertu Agent Q represents a blend of luxury with a focus on craftsmanship, AI integration, and security, making it distinctive in the high-end smartphone market.
Two things have been worth noting about Vertu in the past: the attention to manufacturing details and the human assistant you bought with your phone to help you perform busy human tasks. But today, according to several curious people, it turned out that that assistant has become half artificial, AI seconded by a human presence for heavy tasks and validity. Let’s say that this way they can remain profitable and not go through a change of owners again.
But let’s see how the hardware presents a LUXURY phone.

They seem to be closer to top phones now than Nokia used to be. I don’t know why they didn’t invest in components that could amaze buyers. After all, it was a LUXURY statement.
Any Vertu you have through the collections anyway?
