iPhones are generally seen as premium products, with price-tags to match.
But if you still have some coins burning a hole in your pocket, how about bringing some bling to the iPhone5?
Liverpool designer Stuart Hughes is offering a limited edition of 100 'handsets decked out in 18-carat gold - complete with gold and diamond finishings.
But it will cost you - each phone comes with a hefty price-tag of £21,995, and there's no indication this even covers your call and data plan.

The world's first solid 18ct gold iPhone 5, unveiled in Liverpool yesterday - but at a cost of £21,995 each

What £500 will buy you instead: The suddenly more-ordinary looking iPhone 5

At least Stuart, who has a long history in bringing bespoke luxury to designer items, offers the best iPhone - the 64GB version, offering plenty of space for your music and files.
Stuart, whose company will build to order, said: 'This beautiful handset will take weeks of detailed intricate work to re-create the original chasis of the iPhone in solid gold, all of which was started and finished by hand.
'There will be gold dressing for the rear section with the logo in solid gold with 53 flawless diamonds amounting to 1ct.'
