Gold-plated iPhone 5 goes on sale 

If you thought that the iPhone 5 with its price tag, was as far as one could go with the word 'premium' or 'expensive', you have to read this. Liverpool designer, Stuart Hughes has his own version of the premium iPhone 5, that is all gold and diamond.

Reportedly, Hughes'd version of the latest iPhone has been decked in 18-carat gold and has gold and diamond finishing. Turn the phone over and you see the recognisable Apple logo, encrusted in diamonds. Hughes has on offer a limited edition of 100 handsets of this variety. Hughes' version of the iPhone 5 priced at a mind numbing £21,995 (around Rs 18,76,888). Indian Rupee

An excerpt from Hughes' website reads, "This beautiful handset took 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, also a full gold dressing for the rear section with the logo in solid gold with 53 flawless diamonds amounting to 1ct. This masterpiece boasts a massive circa of 128 grams of 18ct gold. The result was outstanding even down to the precise polishing to reveal its most beautiful harmonious appearance. The handset is 64gb and is available as a ltd edition of only 100."

This isn't Hughes' first attempt at adding bling to technology. Last year, he grabbed headlines when he made the Stuart Hughes’ version of the iPad 2, a snazzier sibling of the regular iPad 2, which you might want to own if you have £5,000,000 on you. For the rest of us, the iPad 2 Gold History Edition was just as exquisite, as it could possibly get.

However, with the iPad 2 Gold History Edition, gold and diamonds weren’t all; it came with a hint of history. The Apple logo that carefully rested at the back of Hughes’ version of the iPad 2 had been set with 12.5 carats of flawless diamonds, 53 of them encrusted to form the signatory Apple logo. The 24k gold logo has been set at the back, weighing a total of 2,000 grams. Its front frame has a touch of history to it.

It has been made out of the oldest existing rock, Ammolite. Apparently, on the front frame of this iPad 2, pieces of a T-Rex dinosaur’s thigh bone had been used, which according to Hughes, was splintered and shaved into the rock, and then given a jewel finish. Adding some bling is the single-cut, 8.5-carat flawless diamond beautifully set in the centre, surrounded by 12 other flawless diamonds.

In the meanwhile, here is a quick look at the specifications of the iPhone 5:

- 4-inch, 326ppi Retina display at 1136 x 640 pixels

Comparison of Video stabilisation on the apple iphone 4s and iphone 5

When unveiling the new iPhone 5 Apple’s Phil Schiller bragged about the improved video stabilization on the smartphone. Given how good the video stabilization on the iPhone 4S was, we were wondering if the latest iPhone 5 will actually be able to deliver.

That’s why we decided to put it the iPhone 5 to a test pinning it against its predecessor. The results await after the break.

First off our test involves strapping the two devices on a stand so they both face the same type and amount of shakes.

As it turns out, the iPhone 5 has a slightly wider viewing angle than the iPhone 4S when recording videos. This means that you’ll be able to fit more in the frame, but also that there are fewer pixels to describe each part of it.

Overall the iPhone 5 produces steadier videos. Camera movement comes out smoother and the result is generally more pleasing. Yet, looking at the videos, we can’t help but notice that the iPhone 4S captures way more fine detail. Signs are easier to read and the whole video appears to be a little bit sharper.

It’s important to note that the iPhone 5 and 4S utilize a digital video stabilization and not an optical one. Nokia’s top-dog Lumia 920 has real optical image stabilization on its PureView 8MP snapper, giving it some serious bragging rights as far as cameraphones are concerned.
