Paying a homage to the icon, Caviar has unveiled custom iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max devices that are inspired by the iPhone 4.

There is a gold edition of the device too that's made of 18K gold and is mounted on a back that is made of black titanium.

Of course, as one would expect, none of this is cheap. The gold version costs just under $9,000 ( <span class='webrupee'>₹</span>6,62,418 approx)
