LONDON, October 16, 2025 — Vertu, the legendary British luxury mobile phone manufacturer renowned for its unparalleled craftsmanship since 1998, today announces the launch of Agent Q, the world's first AI Agent Phone. This groundbreaking device establishes a new paradigm in Unique Design with Vertu New AI Agent Phone, seamlessly uniting revolutionary artificial intelligence capabilities with the warm, organic embrace of the world's finest leathers—a bold departure from the cold, impersonal uniformity dominating today's smartphone landscape.

Defining the AI Agent Phone: Intelligence That Serves You

The Vertu New AI Agent Phone – Agent Q pioneers an entirely new category in mobile technology: the AI Agent Phone. Unlike conventional smartphones that function as passive tools awaiting commands, the Agent Q features an autonomous AI agent that proactively manages your communications, anticipates your needs, and executes complex tasks independently.

This sophisticated AI Agent Phone technology comprehends context, learns your preferences, and operates as an intelligent personal concierge embedded within the device. From screening calls and prioritizing urgent business matters to coordinating international travel and managing confidential communications, the Agent Q's AI agent works invisibly in the background—always attentive, always discreet, always private. All processing occurs on-device, ensuring your sensitive information never leaves your possession.

The Second Skin: Where Technology Meets Organic Warmth

At the heart of the Vertu Agent Q Luxury Materials – THE SECOND SKIN philosophy lies a singular obsession: to banish forever the cold, impersonal touch of metal and glass that characterizes modern smartphones. Your palm and fingertips deserve better. They deserve to meet only organic warmth and gentle resistance—the unmistakable sensation of living material that breathes, ages, and tells your story.

A Profound Sense of Hold

This profound sense of hold is born from Vertu's uncompromising commitment to maximize the embrace of leather. While other manufacturers settle for minimal leather accents or decorative patches, Agent Q envelops your hand in an expansive leather surface that transforms how a phone feels in daily use. This isn't merely aesthetic luxury—it's tactile engineering designed to create an emotional connection between user and device.

The contrast is immediate and undeniable. Where conventional smartphones offer only the clinical coolness of aluminum and glass, Agent Q radiates warmth. Where mass-produced devices feel anonymous and interchangeable, Agent Q feels personal and alive. This is technology you want to hold, not merely need to use.

The 180-Degree Seamless Forming Process: Engineering the Impossible

Creating THE SECOND SKIN required Vertu's artisans to venture beyond the known limits of leatherwork. Over eighteen months of development, master craftsmen perfected a revolutionary 180-degree Seamless Forming Process—a technique that guides premium leather to envelop the intricate geometry of the device chassis in one fluid, uninterrupted surface.

This U-shaped seamless wraparound is a triumph of both patience and precision. The leather begins at one edge of the chassis, curves gracefully around the device's perimeter with microscopic tension control, and returns to meet the screen edge with tolerances measured in fractions of a millimeter. No seams. No breaks. No compromises.

The result is a continuous leather surface that flows like water around the device's form, creating the sensation that the leather has always belonged there—grown rather than applied. This seamless construction eliminates the pressure points and edge inconsistencies that plague conventional leather phone cases, delivering uniform comfort regardless of how you hold the device.

Just Different: The Vertu “V” That Defines Distinction

In a world where smartphone homogeneity has reached absurd extremes—where every device presents an anonymous black mirror when viewed from the front—Agent Q makes an unapologetic statement of individuality. The U-shaped leather wraparound extends deliberately onto the front face, creating a distinctive frame that showcases the iconic Vertu “V” emblem with unmistakable prominence.

This is more than branding; this is identity. When Agent Q rests face-up on a conference table or passes through your hands during conversation, observers don't see generic sameness—they see the bold “V” that announces ownership of something extraordinary. The front-facing leather frame ensures that even at a glance, even from across a room, Agent Q is instantly recognizable as a Vertu.

Just Different. These two words encapsulate Vertu's design philosophy for the Vertu New AI Agent Phone – Agent Q. While competitors pursue convergence toward a single “optimal” design, Vertu celebrates divergence. While others hide their identity behind glass uniformity, Agent Q proclaims its distinction with leather that frames the screen like a precious gem in a bespoke setting.

This Unique Design with Vertu New AI Agent Phone approach directly challenges the assumption that technology must sacrifice personality for functionality. Agent Q proves the opposite: true innovation includes the courage to look different, feel different, and be different.

The World's Finest Hides: A Journey of Origin

The journey to creating THE SECOND SKIN begins with sourcing the world's most exceptional leathers—materials so rare and remarkable that their selection rivals the care devoted to precious gemstones.

Supple Calfskin from France

Our French calfskin represents the pinnacle of leather refinement. Sourced from renowned tanneries in the Loire Valley with centuries-old traditions, this leather offers unparalleled suppleness and a fine grain structure that becomes more beautiful with handling. The natural oils within the leather create a subtle sheen that responds to light, while the material's exceptional durability ensures it will serve you faithfully for years.

Noble Alligator from America

For the launch of Vertu New AI Agent Phone – Agent Q, we proudly introduce American alligator as the premiere leather option—a material of extraordinary prestige and rarity. Sourced exclusively from Louisiana's licensed sustainable farms, genuine American alligator represents the apex of exotic leathers.

Each alligator hide displays nature's artistry: the distinctive scale patterns, the remarkable texture variations, and the depth of color that cannot be replicated or simulated. The scales' three-dimensional structure creates an ever-changing visual and tactile experience as light plays across the surface. This is leather that commands attention, that tells stories, that elevates Agent Q from remarkable device to collector's masterpiece.

The rarity of premium alligator leather cannot be overstated. Each hide must meet rigorous standards for scale uniformity, size, and quality. Only a small percentage of available hides achieve the perfection Vertu demands, making each Agent Q wrapped in alligator genuinely unique—no two devices will ever be identical.

Peerless Ostrich from South Africa

South African ostrich leather offers a distinctive aesthetic defined by the characteristic quill follicle pattern. This leather combines remarkable durability with surprising softness, creating a tactile experience that evolves beautifully over time. The natural oils within ostrich leather develop a rich patina that deepens with use, ensuring your Agent Q becomes more distinguished with age.

The Living Patina: Your Signature Develops Over Time

Unlike cold metals and inert glass that remain forever unchanged, the leathers wrapping Agent Q are living materials that develop character through your unique patterns of use. Over time, the leather develops a distinctive patina—a deep lustre born from the natural oils in your hands, from environmental exposure, from the thousand small interactions of daily life.

This patina becomes your signature. The way you hold the device, the activities that accompany you, even your climate—all leave subtle imprints that make your Agent Q unmistakably yours. This isn't deterioration; it's maturation. Your device becomes more beautiful, more personal, more valuable as it accompanies your journey.

The Saddle Stitch: Where Craft Becomes Promise

Every stitch visible on THE SECOND SKIN is a testament to the human hand and the time-honored traditions Vertu refuses to abandon in pursuit of efficiency. We insist upon the classic Saddle Stitch—the same technique employed by master saddlers for centuries, chosen not for nostalgia but for uncompromising superiority.

The Ritual of Perfection

A steel awl first pierces the carefully marked leather, creating precisely angled holes that guide what follows. Then twin needles, each threaded with beeswaxed linen cord, pass through the hole in opposite directions, creating a locking embrace that distributes tension evenly across both threads. This isn't merely a bond of strength—though saddle stitching is indeed twice as durable as machine stitching—it is our artisanal promise to you.

The beeswaxed linen itself represents material excellence. Unlike synthetic threads that degrade under UV exposure and stress, natural linen strengthened with beeswax becomes more robust over time as the wax penetrates the fibers. Should a single stitch ever be damaged, the interlocking structure prevents unraveling—the remaining stitches hold firm.

Each saddle stitch requires approximately thirty seconds of concentrated work by a master craftsman. The even tension, the precise angles, the consistent spacing—these details separate true craftsmanship from mere assembly. On Agent Q, where dozens of stitches secure the leather wraparound, this represents hours of patient, expert handwork that machines cannot replicate.
