The internet has been abuzz for years with a dazzling claim: that Nita Ambani — wife of industrialist Mukesh Ambani — owns the world’s most expensive mobile phone, the Falcon Supernova iPhone 6 Pink Diamond, reportedly valued at about USD 48.5 million (roughly ₹315–360 crore). The phone, described as encrusted in 24-carat gold and a massive pink diamond, has often been held up as the ultimate luxury status symbol.
According to a set of reports, this bespoke smartphone is a one-of-a-kind creation — featuring a rare pink diamond set into its back, luxurious gold or platinum casing, and an eye-watering price tag that places it head and shoulders above any mainstream smartphone ever made.
However — and here’s the catch — this widely circulated story does not appear to hold up under scrutiny. Several credible investigations, including reporting from major publications, have concluded that the claim about Nita Ambani using such a phone is false.
Officials within her business circles reportedly clarified that she does not own or use the Falcon Supernova iPhone 6 Pink Diamond. Instead, the myth seems to have been fueled by internet rumours, social-media posts, and republished “listicles” about the world’s most expensive phones — many of which present the device more as a luxury “myth” than a verifiable fact.
Still, the story persists — perhaps because the Falcon Supernova phone is real (albeit extremely rare), and because it captures imagination so easily. The device is indeed listed among the world’s most expensive phones, and its extravagant price tag and craftsmanship are well-documented.
