Well if you like the daily news fresh, like the two hours DR P1 send from 16-18 every day, then well...

You would get a terrible experience with a 5G only phone, as the net is just starting to roll out. and it will take years to get total coverage, especially in rural areas. Most devices still supports 2G for the same reason. IMHO it is always nice to have the ability to fall back to the slower older generation of networks, when the reception of the newer is poor or non-existent. And while some of us are so eager to get a keyboard phone that we might be prepared to pay for things being the absolutely newest technology, this might well loose some users in the other end, not finding it worth th

Hope they can fix it easily. But more generally for others: Please note that the difference is the power plug only. The Pro¹ is one version all bands. So even if someone accidentally ordered the wrong variety, it would just require the use of a local charger or a conversion plug.

At first "Thanks" can feel a little awkward when not talking an answered question. But I for one plan to use it also as "Thanks for posting this", that is sort of like a "+1" or "Agree", (as on your post)

It has been asked before, But I do not recall that there was an answer... (And I don't know the answer) But seeing some of the devices on the list, I do not see what should prevent the Pro¹ from being able to get certified. Though I guess they might want to be a little closer to final production design before sending a prototype for certification.

New thanks and quote functions works just great, thanks :)

I too would like FM, but I doubt very much that it will be there when not mentioned in the specs. I would like DAB+ too, but that is even more unlikely.... And indeed Radio over data, can easily eat 0.1GB/hour (DR.DK Danish national broadcast eats that) so for those having a few hours of daily transportation this can add up to a substantial amount for a month, e.g. 20x(2+2)|x0.1GB=8GB

gtmaster303 , a skin and a screen protector sounds great. I think I would prefer that. Especially if it is a tempered glass protector. Perhaps rather that the protector case go for two different variations. 1) Skin for scratch-protecting and grip. 2) A more expensive full case with a flap This would appeal to different user groups. Though better protected I personally would find a flap case too annoying and bulky. For others the skin protection will be too little protection.

However it is made, I see it as a software add on and not a part of the device. To me it sounds more like an idea for an app than a request for a basic function.

Just a thought on how to save a little battery. Normally when I put my phone in the pocket it is top down. So what if the shake-function checked with a relative low frequency whether the device was clearly top-up (that is within some limit from vertical), and only when, checked for a shake with a higher polling rate. This might reduce the consumption in pocket or on a table.

Totally agree with you elvissteinjr and netman (again)

Though search is a nice feature it is way too unimportant to have a dedicated key for. IMHO And as Benjamin said above: "User-configurable" please. :) Generally I do not like the idea of any 'action' by a single key (And this goes for the F-logo key too...) Simply because the relative small keys inevitably will lead to accidental key-strokes. But where pressing the wrong letter is easily remedied by backspace, launching search (or anything else) requires a close of the program/function, that is not easily done from the keyboard, (though some might be reacting well to Esc) I remember

Same problem, Slim Saint Andrew crosses. I guess the picture upload service you are using are somehow inaccessible If I click one of the images I get this security message EDIT: Seems to not be a general issue, but some over zealous Danish security thing that blocks the site....

testdevice, your image links does not seem to work here. I only see two saint Andrew crosses

IMHO the right-shift of the A-Z should be limited to languages with no national letters, that is the US/UK layout only (AFAIK) Even the Canadian QWERTY layouts would expect national letters between L and Enter. So for all other layouts keep the A-Z in their standard positions, and use the keys to the right for national letters.

I'm with netman here. I too believe it could sell better with the curved screen. Look at it this way: Us dinosaurs that want the traditional bezel-fitting of a flat screen are most likely going to buy it with whatever screen it is made, to get the keyboard. On the other hand younger potential buyers might find it too much old-style with a traditional display, so here the curved display might tip the balance. I must say that I was strongly opposed to curved screens until I got the Priv, where I found it to not be as problematic as I expected. Actually I get more erroneous interaction of my

On the suspected problems with interacting with a curved screen while opening, I would say we should wait and see how things actually work. I heard none of the previews complaining on it. Doing a little calculus on "Dimensions: 154 x 73.6 x 13.98 mm" and "5.99-inch 2160 x 1080" gives us that the display area is 68.0mm wide so that would leave 2.8mm bezels on each side. And this might well be enough for pushing the edge NOT to interact with he display. On a Samsung S8- the similar calculus gives 1.8mm side bezels on each side, and here I do experience occasional unwanted interaction. So h

½ pound, afaik. I do not know why the specs does not tell the weight. My GUESS is that some details can yet be adjusted, so they wont promise an exact weight.

Nice DreamFlasher (though if the Scandinavian is to be printed we would like to have "Z/Y" and "Y/Z" also, as we use QWERTY as a base). (And perhaps Psi would me more natural to put on the national key right of P rather than on Y, and Omega on O not W? like this )

On the OS options, see this https://www.fxtec.com/forums/topic/alternative-os-availability-common-entry/

Ah, yes you are right, sorry, there is a limited time for edit. (which makes a lot of sense). And indeed let us hope other users chip in. I have no idea of the distribution of interest/preorders cross the globe. (nor on what layouts they prefer)

If you edit your 'old' comment with an updated picture/link, i can remove our replies, to avoid confusing other readers. :) BTW there is an odd BUG in the forum, so if you edit a comment multiple times within a relatively short time span (an hour?), it gets caught in the spam-filter, assuming you as a spammer, posting the same again (it fails to see that it was edits....).

Cool elvissteinjr, much easier to quickly make suggestions :) PS: I believe you swapped Ä and Ö usually (AFAIK) on German keyboards is ....JKLÖÄ i.e like this

bob3k, Have you tried a Samsung S8+ or S9+? The width is right between the two, and the Pro¹ a bit shorter. Remember that it is 2:1 not 16:9 so 6" sounds larger than it really is. It is substantially less wide than a BlackBerry Priv (with the keyboard in the wrong direction)

I agree with Netman here. barmas, Remember that sliders are still a niche product, so the production volume is going to be low, so the development cost distributed per unit is MUCH higher than for a device sold in many millions of specimens like say a Samsung S8/9/10. ...Actually I had expected it to be priced higher for that exact reason....
