Gear Diary Vertu Constellation Ayxta Flip photo

High end cell phone manufacturer Vertu has announced its latest creation in the Constellation line, the Ayxta.

The new design features the first flip style mechanism from the phone maker and is slated to sell for between 4,900 and 6,500 Euros ($7,100 – $9,500).

In addition to Vertu’s infamous concierge service the Ayxta will also feature Vertu Select, an online service featuring “lifestyle information.”

City Brief sends information to the Ayxta once you inform it of where you’re traveling to, and “enables you to hit the ground running, feeling informed and prepared for your new surroundings”. It’s Lonely Planet for the wealthy, with tips for restaurants, bars, exhibitions, shopping and the all-important cultural standards for the country you’re visiting.

The phone features a micro SD slot, 3G, micro USB port and a 3.o MP camera with flash.  The phone has a stainless steel frame, aluminum details along with leather, ceramic and sapphire crystal.

The Ayxta is on sale now.

I have always had a passion for gear and gadgets. It all started for me with the release of the very first Palm Pilot. I've always had an interest in handheld electronics. From handheld PDAs, to cell phones, Mp3 players, watches and other products, I'm the first person my friends, family and colleagues call when they need advice on tech. I have roots in the online tech. forum community. I served as the Administrator to Howard Forums.com and as a Moderator at both Treo Central.com and Blackberry Forums.net. Under the screen name “lgreenberg” I've amassed 50,000+ postings. I also manage my own YouTube channel under the user name larrygreenberg. I'm always eager to help.
