There is no other better way to show off your piece of technology by having it encased in gold. However, if the pre-existing gold version of iPad Air 2 was just not gold enough for you, Vietnamese jeweler Karalux has decided to address that, and is shipping 24K gold plated iPad Air 2 devices to customers.
Gold treatment of devices is not something new, since you can almost always expect an expensive piece of tech to receive one. As always, these iPads do not come cheap at all and will set you back $1, 173 (RM 3,936) for the starting 16GB model which is more than double the price if you were to get it from the Apple store for RM 1,599. Karalux also offers the iPad mini 3 with the 24K gold plating if you wish to grab the younger sibling from Apple, though be prepare to fork out a lot for it too. That said, the iPad mini 3 is not particularly a premium device either, given the minimal improvements in performance over the iPad mini 2, as the mini 3 had only the Touch ID Home button and the gold colour to set itself apart from the rest of the ‘mini’ lineup.
