Gorgeous Brunette would be the word we’ll use to describe Alison Carroll, where standing at 1.63m, she is probably the most petite British we’ve ever met.

When it comes to designer phones, what people look for is the perfect combination of style, sophistication, and a really pumped up price. The people who buy these phones are not buying them to make calls, but to make a statement; they are rich and they want to show it!

The Motorola Aura is no exception when it comes to the perfect blend of sophistication and high price, that is if you think 3,000 SGD is high. What comes inside the phone is of small relevance to its owners, and what’s outside matters more. If I had to choose one word to describe it, gorgeous, would be just about it.

Technically speaking, the display supports 16 million colors and a 300dpi resolution, sports a 2-megapixel camera, blah blah blah.. okay, enough with the tech talk let’s drool over the exterior a bit, ’cause let’s face it, that’s what this phone is all about. What we like was in its smooth-metallic finish that makes for an enchanting glint by our books. Also, its lens that are (mind you) made of 1.6-carat sapphire crystal; the gems on this baby really makes for an after-glow artas effect. Note too that the gears within this mobile are tungsten carbide coated, in short, hardy as perhaps a lady’s fingernails after intensive nail-hardening polish treatment…You get our drift. It also comes with a swivel mechanism that has over 130 precision ball bearings.

Hmmm… $3,000 doesn’t seem that much now does it? Almost a bargain, some would say.
