Vertu’s Constellation gets a refresh but no new features

gsmarena_001.jpgHugely-expensive phone maker and Nokia off-shoot Vertu has released an update of its Constellation series handsets.

According to GSMarena.com, the latest model is a Mixed Metal Constellation, with polished stainless steel, ceramic keys, black leather. Of course, no Vertu would be complete with out some precious metal adornments and the primary navigation button, side keys, loudspeaker grill, crews and the battery lock are all made out of 18-carat yellow gold.

Under the bonnet, the phone is exactly the same as the original Constellation, with GSM connectivity and no 3G or HSDPA, no camera and not really many other high-tech features. It does feature a colour screen though.

The same goes for the latest edition of the normal Constellation, which now comes in a new colour – a Burgundy-coloured leather back.
