One of the key selling points of the iPhone 12 beyond being a great smartphone is the fact it doubles as a fantastic camera. However, not everyone wants those cameras on the back apparently, and premium Russian brand Caviar has a very expensive solution for those individuals.
As GSMArena reports, Caviar is launching two modified iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max smartphones with the rear cameras removed and the selfie camera disabled. Caviar explains it designed the iPhone 12 Pro Stealth and iPhone 12 Pro Stealth Gold, “For those who want to feel safe in all situations.” These modified iPhones are far from cheap, though.
If you want the base model iPhone 12 Pro Stealth with 128GB of storage, it will cost you $4,990. Prices for the iPhone 12 Pro Max Stealth start at $5,530. Both Stealth models use a hardened titanium black casing with “vertical guilloche,” which is an interlaced ribbon effect on the surface of the case. Engraving is also available on the back and side of the phone.
For those of you with even more money to splash on a camera-less iPhone, there’s the Stealth Gold models to consider. They upgrade the casing to be tempered titanium with an extra-strong gold PVD coating and the same vertical guilloche finish. The iPhone 12 Pro version starts at $5,520 and the Pro Max at $6,060.
I’m sure you’ll be happy to hear that shipping is free and Face ID continues to work on these modified iPhones because it relies on the TrueDepth camera which hasn’t been disabled. Don’t hang about if you want one, though, as Caviar is only making 99 available of each model.
