  1. I think it would have been a first in history if a new phone was released error-free..... Even the big guys Samsung and the fruit company can't do that, and you expected F(x)tec as a small start-up could? Then your confidence in them were even higher than mine.....

  2. https://www.golem.de/news/fx-tec-pro-1-im-hands-on-starkes-tastatur-smartphone-fuer-650-euro-1909-143673.html (German) Google web page translation doesn't work well because of their ads and their specific (laudable) approach in offering visitors several ways to get rid of ads, so I took the liberty to add the deepl.com translation (unedited) below.

DId I miss a bunch of bugs? with bluetooth only aptx (one of many audio codecs) doesn't seem to be working -> easy software update hdmi -> probably software google pay (not play) not working, because the certification is not finished -> easy software update sensor issues -> probably one selinux setting (explains the reboot) -> easy software update screen freezes -> probably software

  5. Personally I would never bid on nor buy from an ebay seller with a reputation of just 6 (!) - and even those are as buyer only, and many months old. Your are not even covered by their buyers protection. And the very low serial number 000002 must be a staff item, that seems very odd to go on sale so quickly, so it all has a suspicious smell to it....

  6. Honestly I'd be afraid of that thing damaging the (rather delicate) headphone jack, spreading/chocking itself in, and the force of whatever attached (plus initial tension) taken partly by the SoC. 3.5mm-jacks tend to lose contact over lifetime just by plugging in and out.

  7. If somebody has problems with understanding why a small company takes so long to develop and ship a product for the first time, this may help you. For me it really helped understand the numerous difficulties and you get a lot of details that companies couldn't give you. PS: I don't know why it embeds or how I prevent that. Sorry!

  14. Funny, that's one of the top 3 things I despise about this PRIV I'm using for a moment because my Droid 4 is charging. The keyboard touchpad is always moving things when I least expect it, and even managed to select and replace a block of text when I was attempting to insert an emoji via punctuation. The other 2 despised items are working in portrait, and the keyboard being only a 3-row. My favorite portrait phone (a little useless these days, but really my favorite smartphone of all time) was the Treo 700p, but that wasn't really a portrait phone as such because it had a 4:3 screen, so you he

  15. Here are more pictures. - the sleeve is a little bit wider and taller as the phone. It's not easy to put the the phone in it and out. Therefore, it definitely doesn't fall out by itself! - the protector fits really good to the screen -> full screen incl. edges (please ignore the bubbles ๐Ÿ˜‚)

  16. I would rather not dangle it from any mechanical part on a regular basis. As a pure safety line, this would of course be preferable to a drop. A strap hole integrated into the body would be a much appreciated improvement for any future releases in my book.

  17. Best way to make customers happy is to reduce the price for others before their pre-orders are even all shipped out. I don't see how this would even be remotely likely to happen, as much as I'd like this phone to be cheaper.

  19. I doubt its a test device, it's retail packaged, etc. This happened with moto-mod too, one appeared on ebay shortly after the first shipment. It will be interesting to see how much it goes for. It is curious how it got to the US tho; if someone received it in Europe they could sell it from Europe. I mean yeah sure someone coulda mailed it over or flown over with it, but why?

  27. I think the mistake is yours, or more likely you dreamed it. The closest thing to that I've seen was someone on tmo who accidentally typo'd in a post reporting he was allocated stock in first batch but wasnt IGG backer when in fact he was, and Chen replied with apology for mistake and would reallocate appropriatly, before it was clarified he was in fact IGG backer and it was his own typo - due to on screen keyboard - that caused the confusion. And even if that's what you were mistakenly referring to, that's still one, not plural.

  28. Please take this gently, as it's meant, but.......stop acting like you're starving to death because the food wagon hasn't been able to make it through the snowy mountain pass because a mule broke its leg and there was an avalanche, and your isolated 19th-century town in the mountains ran out of food weeks ago. This is a super-awesome device, but it's not like there aren't other things we can use in the meantime. I'm as excited as everyone else, but things happen. I'd rather they get it right than get it rushed. Delays happened, but it's in production, and it's looking like everyone who has ord
