Let's face it — smartphones don't come cheap. Even with  a carrier subsidy, a good phone will still cost around $200.

However, that price sounds like nothing compared to what some luxury designers charge for their high-end smartphones.

Forget hundreds of dollars — some some extremely high-end devices will cost you millions.

Here's a look at some of the most expensive smartphones on the planet. 

Stuart Hughes' Black Diamond iPhone 5 - $15.3 million

Designer Stuart Hughes' diamond-encrusted iPhone took nearly 9 weeks to create by hand, according to his website. Hughes re-created the iPhone 5's chassis with solid gold and included a single deep-cut  black diamond. The phone's sides and home buttons are also trimmed with diamonds. It costs an unbelievable $15.3 million. 



Stuart Hughes' iPhone 4 Diamond Rose - About $8.5 Million

With the iPhone 4, Hughes instead decided to re-create the iPhone 4 with pure rose. It also includes about 500 diamonds and costs about $8.5 million. 



Peter Alloisin's iPhone 3G Kings Button - $2.41 Million

In 2009, Jeweler Peter Alloison created a version of the iPhone 3G that costs $2.41 million. The home button is encrusted with a 6.6-karat diamond and the phone is covered in 18-karat yellow gold, according to Unwired View. Alloison has since taken his website offline.
