Well, not just carbon but also titanium, steel and polished glass for 'uncompromised' and, um, expensive performance.
Nokia's has unveiled the latest incarnation of its 8800 range of high-end fashion handsets in the from of the Carbon Arte.
Launching this quarter for a wallet emptying £870 (sim free) the 'custom-built' device is aimed at the more discerning mobile user and has been carved from carbon fibre, titanium, polished glass and stainless steel.
It's all about minimalistic style with a bit of exclusive pre-loaded content, including ringtones and wallpaper.
The 8800 Carbon Arte also sports a clock display that lights up when the user taps the steel surface below the display twice.
In the guts of the 3G device can be found a 3.2 megapixel camera, 4GB internal memory, OLED display and an 'all-in-one' microUSB connector.
