Unfortunately, there are flaws with the devices that cannot be fixed by the LineageOS folks. The most prominent is the the mobile connectivity issue, preventing many devices to effectively work as mobile phones. Then there is the dreaded "battery depletion" bug which results in a bricked device for Average Joe. There are more - less disabling - issues that will never be fixed with F(x)tec being effectively broke, like the "right loudspeaker fail at high battery charge bug" and others... I had genuinely believed the Pro1-X (QX1050) could be a viable successor to my Pro1 (QX1000). It c

New Model? There isn't even an old model yet! 🤣 I kid, but yeah, as Hook points out, it seems like no niche products are coming out of China right now.

As you can see from the latest update, Planet Computers are having their own problems... https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/astro-slide-5g-transformer/x/17980121#/updates/all

Nope. The Pro1-X project is dead in the water, with most ordered (and paid) devices not even delivered to customers yet. Reportedly, the phones have actually been manufactured. But for almost a year, F(x)tec have been unable to pay for continued shipping. They seemingly are also unable to refund disappointed customers cancelling their orders. At least one of their other products (linxdot) seems to be haunted by similar troubles, suggesting the company is nearly broke. I actually expect them to announce end-of-business in one of the next IGG updates.

They are currently broke (so much so that they havent been able to pay the shipping fee for a single pro 1x for a few weeks, maybe months, now), so I seriously doubt they are even imagining a new model at this point.

lineage-20.0-20230713-nightly-pro1x with July 5th security patch installed smoothly via OTA. I have MindTheGapps13, and root was maintained. This was done on the road using my sons wifi. No disconnects, 🙂

I order things to the US from China not regularly, but frequently. The longest I have had to wait in the past 3 years has been about 3 weeks from order to delivery. Most recently I ordered something on March 8th and got the package on March 17th. I am not saying that fxtec does not have legit problems; I'm just saying there is more to the story. I really feel bad for them, because it's a great phone and they did such an amazing thing taking on the market and producing a device that mostly lives up to its promise. I love my Pro1. I wanted my husband to love his X. I hope that th

So after patiently waiting for fxtec to come through and give me my refund for my canceled order placed on 2021.04.21 I called my credit card company and disputed the charges. I gave them all the information (date order placed, order #, number of emails I sent asking for a refund, how I contacted them, and the fact that no credit or confirmation of refund has been provided along with no contact from the "finance team"). I am happy to report that despite it being over 2 years, my credit card company provided me with a FULL refund and said that they will handle the rest of the claim. I did
