iPhone X Tesla to run by solar energy

Russian accessories manufacturer, Caviar, has just revealed one of the most expensive iPhones on the market. As a reference to Elon Musk’s ongoing sustainable energy advancements, this luxurious device takes power via solar battery, covers in carbon and gold design; as well as coming with a beautiful wooden carry case. Entitled the name iPhone X Tesla, it will have a starting price of more than $4,000 ($4,064 for the 64 GB variant, $4,847 for 256 GB). And the first one will be sent to Elon Musk himself.

Caviar is known for making elaborate and lavish accessories that cost thousands of dollars. And this iPhone X Tesla is no different. What makes the cases unique is that they’re not removable. Caviar adheres the designs directly to the handset itself. This altered casing will harness solar energy to charge up the battery. Furthermore, Caviar states that you can charge it up with either the sun or even bright lamps. A nifty bit of utility for those who live in drearier countries. Check out more pictures HERE.

This customization makes the phone “considerably thicker”, up-sizing the original 7.7 mm to a heavy 16.2 mm. As for the remaining specs, they are still the same as any other iPhone X models. In details, the iPhone X Tesla specs include a 5.8 inch OLED with the resolution of 2346 x 1125 pixels. Under the hood, it retains the A11 Bionic chip and draws a 2716 mAH juice box. Regarding the storage, the Apple handset offers a 3GB RAM and 64GB/256GB ROM with no card slot. Photography-wise, iPhone X Tesla camera includes a dual 12MP (f/1.8, 28mm) + 12MP (f/2.4, 52mm) rear snappers and a 7MP (f/2.2, 32mm) selfie shooter.
