A Russian accessories maker called Caviar just released one of the most expensive iPhones you can buy.
The iPhone X Tesla is a customized iPhone X plated in carbon and gold with a built-in solar battery. The device starts at more than $4,000, and comes in its own wooden carrying case.
Caviar is known for making elaborate accessories that cost thousands of dollars. What makes the cases different is that they’re not removable — Caviar adheres its designs directly to the device itself.
But the Tesla device — named because of Elon Musk’s commitment to sustainable energy — is Caviar’s first with its own solar battery.
Here’s how it works.
Rather than a standalone case, Caviar seemingly adhered the Tesla case directly to the phone.
It comes in two models: 64 GB and 256 GB, which cost about $4,064 and $4,847 respectively.
The iPhone X Tesla case is so thick, the camera bump on the back of the phone becomes recessed inside the case.
The phone is engraved with the phrase “Made on Earth by humans” — the same phrase Musk had printed on the circuit board of the Tesla Roadster he sent into space aboard SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy rocket.
Caviar said that the number of preorders for the iPhone X Tesla exceeded its expectations. Each of the 999 products will have their own individual number.
You will likely have to pay for taxes and customs duties, though.
You can buy your own iPhone X Tesla on Caviar’s website.
