DIE-HARD Apple fans can now purchase a ludicrously expensive iPhone covered in 18-carat gold and more than 100 diamonds.
But it won’t come cheap: the ritzy blower costs $24,990 – around £20,000.
It was designed by Golden Concept, a Swedish company that sells blinged-up versions of popular gadgets.
The iPhone Sugar Skull Edition is one of its most premium creations yet.
Wealthy punters will enjoy a new iPhone XS Max with a gilded skull on the back that was “hand carved by a master craftsman”.
The skull is made from 110 grams of 18-carat gold, and is covered in diamonds.
There are 137 diamonds on the back of the phone in total, helping to justify the high price tag.
And the back of the handset is also coated in premium alligator leather – vegans need not apply.
Golden Concept describes the gadget as “an unmistakable piece of art”, and hopes to attract wealthy buyers.
But if you’re a cheapskate, you can instead buy a Sterling Silver and Swarovksi version for a friendlier $9,990 (£8,000).
The dazzling mobile also comes with a one-year warranty, and is offered with a 30-day return policy too.
Of course, the obvious downside to this is that iPhone owners only keep their handsets for a few years.
Apple replaces the iPhone with a newer, faster and more advanced model every 12 months – so your £20,000 handset might feel out of date very quickly.
But if you’ve got £20,000 spare to splash on a gilded iPhone, you might not be too worried about having to upgrade in a few years anyway.

The handset has already been handled and filmed by popular YouTuber Unbox Therapy, who received the first and only sample prior to launch.
In his unboxing video, he said: “That’s a £25,000 phone – do you even feel comfortable carrying this?
“It is not to be compared with your average run of the mill smartphone, because this has taken on some different form at this point.”
He added: “This is the most luxurious iPhone on planet Earth.”
