Why selected
The content is based on TechCrunch's exclusive hands-on test, with detailed data and objective analysis, providing a rare real-world evaluation of a high-priced AI hardware.
AI commentary
「This is a rare hands-on test of luxury AI hardware, offering insights for geeks/investors, high-end phone collectors, and those interested in AI deployment forms. However, Vertu's brand premium far outweighs its AI value—don't expect it to replace your daily workflow.」
Quick overview
Vertu has unveiled a luxury foldable phone designed for executives, equipped with an AI Agent and priced at $6,880. TechCrunch's hands-on test evaluates its AI workflows, battery life, security, and daily usability. The AI Agent can autonomously schedule appointments, take meeting minutes, manage emails, and execute cross-app tasks. However, the current version still falls short in understanding complex instructions, response speed, and battery consumption. The device targets a niche of ultra-high-end business users and is not meant for the mass market.
- Vertu's AI Agent can autonomously handle scheduling, emails, and meeting notes, but accuracy drops to ~70% on complex instructions.
- Battery life is average: about 4 hours of continuous AI Agent use, or a full day of mixed usage.
- Built-in hardware-level security chip enables on-device AI inference for privacy protection.
- Priced at $6,880, featuring palladium body and sapphire glass, limited availability.
