HIGHLIGHTS

The Galaxy S7 smartphone is made of Gold and Rubies, and features Russian President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin's face at the back.

Looks like the Samsung Galaxy S7 will be seeing yet another iteration based on a significant public figure. Recently Samsung unveiled a Batman themed Galaxy S7 Edge, and called it the ‘Injustice Edition’. 

Now, Russian smartphone customiser Caviar has created what he calls ‘Caviar Samsung Supremo Putin Rubino’. The designer has taken a Samsung Galaxy S7 and turned it into a piece of art, carved in Gold. The back of this luxurious Galaxy S7 features a crest with Russian President Putin’s face carved, also in Gold. The rest of the round shaped crest is studded with real Rubies. Putin’s name is also stamped on to the ring surrounding the crest. 

In case you were wondering what this Galaxy S7 might cost someone who actually conceives the idea of buying it, hold onto your smartphones because you might just feel you’re holding a cheap metal toy. The Caviar Samsung Supremo Putin Rubino will cost a whopping $27,213 or Rs. 20,14,963! That’s more than an honest labour’s pay for sure, it even higher than what some mid-level executives make in a year, in India! Looks like this one it going to earn a lot of brownie points for the artist from the Russian President.
