Vertu pleads ‘not dead’, sends invitations to an event tomorrow

Vertu

Remember when Vertu was relevant back in the days, being a premium sub-brand of Nokia? It proceeded to move away as a separate brand and that didn’t really work well, with ownership changing several times. Last time we heard, its owner stroke a deal with TCL for building Vertu smartphones in the UK-based plant, but later information about liquidation and foreclosing of the manufacturing arm appeared.

Well, it seems all is forgotten now and Vertu is trying to get back on board. Chinese medias received an invitation in a fancy black and golden envelope about an event in Beijing boldly named “Live or Die”. It is scheduled for October 17 and will probably bring a new luxurious smartphone.

The invite says “Handmade in England” which leads to the assumption the new phone will continue the tradition of ostentatious design and fancy finishes.

The event begins at 17:30 local time and we can’t wait to see what Vertu has prepared for us.
