    An Austrian jeweller has designed the world's most expensive mobile phone – a customised Apple iPhone 3G.

    The $2.5million phone, named the King's Button, is made of solid 18 carat yellow gold, rose gold, and white gold surrounded by 139 'F' colour diamonds.

    The most expensive jewel is a rare 6.6 carat diamond, which has been integrated as the iPhone's 'home' button.

    The phone is the latest one-of-a-kind creation by jeweller Peter Aloisson.

    Aloisson made his first diamond-encrusted phone a decade ago and last year unveiled a $1.3million smart phone for the Russian company, JSC Ancort.

    The King's Button price tag is exclusive of VAT but includes insurance and post and packaging.

    • I would certainly buy this if I had the money, however including Post & Packaging within the price tag made me giggle. Like I'd trust the Post Office to deliver it - not on your nelly !!!!
