The people at Caviar are in the business of creating special edition smartphones with precious metals. Because they're stationed in Russia, it would appear that they've been coerced into creating a Putin gold iPhone X. If they did this voluntarily, they really ought to be ashamed of themselves.
This is not the first time the folks at Caviar have made a Putin Gold edition iPhone. They've been doing this same sort of thing since 2014. There've been Putin special editions for iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, iPhone 6s, iPhone 7, and iPhone X. Each new design is progressively more extravagant and gaudy.
"This is likely the ultimate perfection of the golden presidential phone," said the makers of this monstrosity in a press release. "Caviar brand has created the new iPhone X design - The Golden Age of Vladimir Putin - to celebrate the fourth Presidential term of Vladimir Putin." The inscription surrounding the head of Putin also reads: "The Golden Age of Vladimir Putin."
Putin's head sits in the center of the back of the phone, while the bottom features a relief image of the Kremlin with the Russian coat of arms. The Russian design elements are great, and Russia is full of mightily talented individuals - it's just a shame they're living under the rule of a leader who's effectively a life-term czar.
As it should be well known, Putin was elected with a reported 76% of votes in the 2018 Russian "presidential election." Please feel free to read about how this is nonsense in The Atlantic.
For those that asked: I do not know whether Donald Trump will be one of the lucky owners of this limited edition election celebration Putin iPhone X. I DO know that it's most certainly well within Donald's taste realm. Have a peek below for additional angles, and please cover your keyboard, as you may well spew.
