Apple iPhone 6s gets a Black Gold coating just for couple of million

Well if Apple's latest Gold color addition to the iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus was meant something to the customers! which can be this year's hero color for the iPhone 6s and 6s Plus is Rose Gold. But imagine the millions of people who are going to have one. Now what do you think about not a Rose Gold, but a Black Gold? Yes, you read that right, add rhodium to gold and you get black gold.


And it's Vietnamese company Karalux that comes up with this pretty freaking idea, offering a Black Gold plating service for the iPhone 6s in addition to its more orthodox 24K gold-plating jobs. The color is achieved by mixing gold with rhodium in a specific ratio and rhodium itself is 6 times more expensive than gold, the company's technical director says. So don't get to excited, you have to hurt badly your pocket in order to get this one.

The time consuming process of covering an iPhone with Black Gold takes 8 hours and as you would have guessed, it's not exactly cheap. A 64GB iPhone 6s dipped in the rhodium/gold pot will set you back $2,300 (VND 52 million), though you could save a couple of million and get the 16GB version, who are we to judge where your priorities lie.

Let us know what you think? does it worth the shot or is it just another useless features?
