Review of the Vertu Ascent Racetrack Legends Limited Edition
Phone Design
Overview
Hold any Vertu in your hand, and your first sensation is almost always a satisfying feeling of weightiness and tactility. The different material surfaces on the phone make handling this Ascent a real pleasure.

The bodies of the Monaco and the Nurburgring Ascents are made primarily of titanium, with extremely distinctive knurled surfaces (appearing for the first time in a Vertu) that catch and reflect light easily, thus enabling the phones to stand out from the crowd.
The limited edition Racetrack Legends phones honor the great racetracks of the world. Pictured here are the Monaco and Nurburgring, which have their namesake racetrack etched in laser on their back plates.
Each phone is hand-finished in fine leather, and features knurled titanium for an easy and distinctly tactile grip.
