$7 million iPad 2 comes with “sections of a 65 million year old T-REX Dinosaur’s thigh bone”

Outrageous, yes. Creative, yes. Soon to be outdated, yes! You’ve probably heard of the name Stuart Hughes before, he’s the designer that created the $8 million iPhone and dubbed it the world’s most expensive mobile phone. He’s back and has now created the iPad 2 “Gold History Edition”. This is valued at £5,000,000.00 (about $7 million CAD) and comes with the Apple logo “encrusted with 12.5 cts of ‘I’F’ Flawless diamonds, a magnificent total of 53 individually set sparkling gems”. In addition, the entire iPad 2 has been outfitted with 24ct gold that brings the weight to an “immense 2,000 grams”.

Ready for the Canadian twist? Here we go: the front frame of the iPad 2 is “made from the oldest rock the world has to offer in the form of Ammolite, sourced from Canada this stone is over 75 million years old”… plus this is where it gets a bit crazy. How’d you like to own a bit of a T-REX Dinosaur? If so, you better be buying this has been laced with “sections of a 65 million year old T-REX Dinosaur’s thigh bone was splintered and then shaved into the Ammolite”. Crazy.

Only 2 of these will be made.

  2. Trex bone should be in a museum, not ground up and stuck on an ipad… this is ridiculous.

  9. I still don’t understand why they keep making these super expensive iPads, especially with this rare t-rex bone. And I wonder who in the right mind would spend this much on this iPad 2. A waste imo…

  22. To be honest, if someone would actually be willing to buy this monstrosity, I would want to be the guy that gets the commsission off of it. If people are going to be stupid enough to buy something like this, I want to get some of that money. I’d try to upsell them.

  23. This is the most disgusting display of ignorance I’ve ever seen. Jobs should be ashamed. Really? T-Rex bone? That improves an iPad in what way? Friggin hell, the person who buys this POS should be shot. How about you give 7 million to a worthy cause and buy a regular iPad like everyone else?
