Vertu Announces Carbon Fiber Ascent Ti Range

23 Jul, 2009, 10:00 am IST | Shayne Rana | Mobile phones

Another new handset has emerged from uber luxury handset maker – Vertu. After Damascus Steel is the eagerly anticipated Carbon Fibre Ascent Ti. Proclaimed as one of today’s most coveted modern luxury materials, Carbon Fibre also sits at the heart of the Vertu Ascent Ti ethos of high performance with its use throughout the motorsport, marine and aerospace industries.

Vertu has now engineered this high strength-to-weight material via new sophisticated design methods to produce the intricate Carbon Fibre components required to incorporate it into the Ascent Ti. Handcrafted in England, the Ascent Ti Carbon Fibre has been repeatedly tested to ensure the optimum amount of fibers and resin are processed together to achieve a flawless uniform look on both the flat and curved parts.


The diagonal rib appearance of each phone is achieved using a twill carbon fiber weave process resulting in what always seems to be a robust and contemporary handset whilst the actual carbon fiber used has been tailor-made in the smallest 1k weave width to create a pattern profile with a perfect dimensional look. The collection will include the Ascent Ti Carbon Fibre Limited Edition, Carbon Fibre Grip, Carbon Fibre and Aluminum Grip and Carbon Fibre and Copper Grip.

Pricing has not yet been disclosed.
