VERTU FAQ Interview With BeInCrypto

In 1998, Nokia had a vision — to create the world’s first ever luxury phone. In 2002, VERTU was officially established in England, as the pearl in Nokia’s crown. The phone expressed three core values — beautiful design, aristocratic elegance, and connecting people through technology.

The brand’s insight: “You don’t settle for ordinary in any other area of your life, so why do it with one of your most personal possessions?”. VERTU was the pioneering luxury phone, yet it was also so much more than that. By giving users access to a unique concierge service at the push of a ruby key button, it opened a portal to an elite way of living too.

VERTU was born out of Nokia and formed by British culture. It embodies the essence of Englishness with all of its unique charm. For instance, British culture has always embraced both the traditional and the cutting-edge. Likewise, the VERTU V goes in two directions — one pointing to the past and the other to the future.

The past is VERTU’s commitment to timeless quality. The future is VERTU’s passion for innovation. Which is why we have stayed loyal to the satisfyingly tactile button style of the Signature series. And it’s also why we have embraced flexible screens and foldable 5G handsets. VERTU is a classic brand, not an old one. After 24 years we are always innovating, yet always pleasingly familiar.

Web3 is a concept that is on fire in 2022. From bitcoin, blockchain, mining, DeFi, to BAYC, the BORED APE YACHT CLUB that sells for millions. Web3 is an industry that has been breaking people’s inherent perceptions of the internet, and with millions of dApps comparable to Apple’s ecosystem, it has begun to take shape, which means that Web3 mobiles are ripe with opportunity.

We define METAVERTU as a fundamental constructions for web3, it will empower the portal for crypto world, they have the potential to affect the entire mobile phone ecology — We define METAVERTU as a fundamental construct for web3, empowering users with a portal into the crypto world, it has the potential to affect the entire mobile phone ecology — and even the internet as a whole.

As we all know for the application layer for software, it has a limitation for both security and speed, without enhancing the hardware capability, it won’t have a big improvement on performance. As we all know, the application layer of software has a limitations for both security and speed, and so without enhancing the hardware’s capabilities, we can’t reach a large improvement in performance.

That’s why VERTU created METAVERTU.  We have the rights to choose which chip could be embedded in a phone, and we can adjust and test the hardware to reach maximum efficiency. We think that METAVERTU can be used as smart terminal portal that will open the door to the Web 3.0 world, and that is also the reason why METAVERTU stands out from others in the market.

VERTU cares about the people, and we want to start a revolution to break the digital hegemony that has long been monopolized by internet giants.

This leads to our new web3 core value: data governance of the people, by the people and for the people. It is our mission to bring people into the web3 world smoothly, and let them enjoy the security that comes with having their own digital sovereignty.

By using the METAVERTU , each smart device can become a blockchain node, building a Web3-based behavioral value internet and returning user rights to the individual. With this game-changing phone, each user will have a new, unique identity with full anonymity and security. By using technologies such as blockchain, AI ,big data and IoT, all of the user’s data and property will be under their control alone.

We are really focused on simplifying the web3 ecosystem, and we do in three ways.  Firstly, the metaspace in METAVERTU gives you the ability to switch between web2 and web3 with just one click, and this space has been encrypted to secure it against hacking.

Secondly, we have divided the web3 and dapps by layers in metaspace, and employ a clear navigation system so that users can easily find what they are looking for.  Last but not least, we provide our users with a one-to-one consulting service, so if they have any questions, they can contact a member of our strong consulting team directly.

We know that Samsung and Apple are big, influential companies, and see that while Samsung is always trying new things, Apple is more conservative in looks and features, with each new model having minor changes from the last.

At VERTU, we are insistent on having unique designs and breaking the mold. We believe people are unique, and our models express that. We believe everyone wants something different, and though some may not like our aesthetic, it cannot be ignored, we aren’t here to make everybody love us.

Besides our iconic designs, we also have very competitive hardware features. The bespoke VERTU “CNCOS” operating system is a ‘5-dimensional integrated ecosystem,’ combining chips, smart terminals, blockchain, OS, and services into a single mobile handset. As the transition from Web2.0 to Web3.0 gains momentum, the METAVERTU is designed to facilitate a seamless transition for VERTU customers, partnering with key players such as crypto-pioneer Ethereum.

Besides our unique designs, other features on this flagship 5G launch include Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 GEN1 chip, 400-PPI ultra-high image density (on a 6.8” AMOLED Display), a triple camera system allowing detailed imagery from 100 meters, super-fast charging 5000mAh battery and a 9-layer Heat Dissipation System.

While a lot of our customers may be wealthier than most, this isn’t about “Connecting (Only The Rich) People”, and is actually providing a method for users to make money themselves, via a dapp we are launching to do staking through METAVERTU.

We also keep our traditional brand essence, our craftsmanship, our rare materials, our concierge services, and the community we have been building for years.

A Bored Ape’s floor price is around 62 ETH ($76,446) and has 10,000 community members, everyone wants to be part of it, but in VERTU, we have more members in our community, and they are the real whales. So imagine buying a METAVERTU to get the pass card into such a community, and you also get a fantastic mobile phone, I think it’s quite a reasonable price.
