After numerous recent rumors, the Tag Heuer luxurious mobile phone is finally officially announced. The oddly named Tag Heuer Meridiist is a high-roller fashionable handset and a perfect match...

to vlad. I said I'm rich. I didn't say I'm dumb. Get a job so you can afford to buy your own cellphone instead of asking others to buy one for you =)

phones are meant to be obsolete in a few months or years...watches aren't ....it's like wine older it gets the more valuable it becomes...i don't mind spending couple of grands on a watch it's worth every penny...

well u pay for the brand...
about a significant percentage goes to the brand...
yeah we all know the phone is bad, bulky and obese
but it is stylish ... uhmm well the name makes it stylish lol
wen will they finally make a feature rich fone with a good design.. the closest ive seen is the w960i... but im expecting more
well okie u have a feature rich phone but it looks like crap.. we all agree that style is stil an important factor..
but i sometimes wonder... do they intentionally omit some features off phones just to make the consumer choosing between diff models? another money making marketing strategy :P

I pay top dollars for anything that's worth the money and holds it's value. Cloth, food, watches, cars, houses, even entertainments.... But not electronics, especially cellphones. These specs are far from impressive, it's just like you put an E46 M3 engine into a E92 M3 body and sell it for way beyond retail price. I really think it's an insult how these company see the opportunity and intentionally selling these overpriced junks directly towards the "rich and the famous" So another words: To validate your success and your intellegent, buy this stupid phone.

I disagree on those stereotype comments that rich people would buy this phone just because of its name. Well I am rich, and I would never buy this phone, neither the Vertu even if I can afford to buy hundreds of them. I have a Nokia N95 8gb, and I would buy the N95 whether it's priced $25 or $5,000. Not all rich people are fools. Some of us are also smart and practical. I admit that most expensive stuff do offer better quality and features in MOST cases, but that is not the case with this phone. 2mp camera? No video? Unfortunately, some brand manufacturers take advantage of rich people (the dumb ones). But the more sad thing is, a lot of rich people fall for it. I heard Paris bought one of these =)

It will cost around 3400-3900 Euro's.
And I just vomited. This thing is a monster. No wonder it is so horrorfyingly fat - it even eats crocodiles:

How tacky!!
And yes, it is made from steel (what happened to aluminium or titanium) - so you are paying a luxury price for a material which is inferior to that used on my (in comparison) scabby Nokia 6500 - meaning this phone will indeed weigh about 1 metric tonne.
No wonder that poor girl in the photo has such a swollen ankle. It could quite possibly be the first mobile in history which when dropped does more damage to the envrionement than the phone itself. It really should come with a health warning. It could probably snap bone just on vibrate...
Oh wait... It doesn't have vibrate function.
Oh well. What else can 4000 Euro's buy you these days?....

Looks like she accidently dropped her Meridiist on it.
But then it does warn you with its morbidly obese styling and torrorfying weight...

Are they catering for those with hands the size of big foot with this thing?
How exactly are you supposed to hold something which is 3 inches thick?
Perhaps if Tag Heuer had decided to shave off two thirds of the NEEDLESS chunk, it might have shaved two thirds off the price.
I won't open the debate as to what is more beautiful - fat or thin - as this is purely down to personal preferance. But all I will say, is with anything fashionable and desirable and expensive, how often do you see a fat model?
Mr Tag Heuer, what have you done? What have you done?....
