Vertu debuts the first Web3 phone in the world
Luxury smartphone manufacturer Vertu is back on the market with its ‘Metavertu’, a revolutionary mobile phone that claims to be the world’s first web3 phone. With a single click, Metavertu can switch from a traditional Android smartphone to Web3 mode, where it can run its own blockchain node and create NFTs. As the UK-based brand demonstrates in the video below, the Vshot camera app allows users to turn photos or videos into NFTs with one touch after taking them. ‘Make your photos worthy. Everyone can be an artist in the Web3 world,’ emphasizes the company.
Powered by a new Qualcomm Snapdragon 8Gen1 processor, all models feature a ceramic frame, a delicate curved screen, and a three-lens camera array — a 64 MP main camera with a Sony IMX787 sensor, a 50 MP ultra wide-angle camera, and an 8 MP periscope camera. For extra protection, each device contains a dedicated built-in privacy chip that ensures your digital wallet and purchases are secure.

a revolution in both the mobile phone & Web3 industry
The luxury phone purveyor went bankrupt in 2017, but a year later, it reopened after a succession of owners. Today, Ventu moves on to the thrilling world of Web3, NFTs, and the metaverse with its latest creation ‘Metavertu’, which switches from web2 to web3 in a few seconds. The smartphone comes in eight different variants, with a series of different colors and finishes. The prices range from around 3,000 euros to 40,000 euros. The entry-level model comprises a calfskin back, while the top one is covered in Himalaya Alligator leather and 18-carat gold and diamonds.
Another highlight is that the models feature a nine-layer heat dissipation system to guarantee they always stay cool and calm. The luxury company says ‘goodbye to power anxiety’ with a secure, full charge in just 20 minutes that can last more than 24 hours.
The Metavertu smartphones are now available on the company’s website.
