This looks so good imo. Can we also get a " ΞΌ " sign in there for sciency stuff? That would be great.

My problem is that you can get SD855 phones with edgeless qhd screens and tripple cameras for 500-600 dollars (or even less). But this is an off-topic discussion already discussed in another thread. (Also, I wouldnt pay that much for the razr either, because as you say that is a really weak and old fashioned chip)

Hello, @waxberry Now a few months later I return with my question: any new info about if/when a scandi layout could be expected? Or should I just get a QWERTZ version? Albeit I really would not like to. The more and more time that goes by, the less sense the already high price makes... We are now essentially paying 650+β¬ for 3 year old tech apart from camera, RAM and keyboard... At this point in time, it feels like I will get a ProΒ² before there is a scandi proΒΉ

Oh, I did not realize the QWERTZ were also included in the pre-order launch. Thought that would only be US-QWERTY, but that it was possible to put in an order for QWERTZ. Congrats, though! Looking forward to your review (I assume you will make one π )
-
Any time table info on when and/or if production of QWERTZ and Scandi-QWERTY will start?

This is absolutely amazing! But for now I will wait and see if they will move on with their plans for SCANDI-qwerty or not.

Thanks! Unfortunately that site does not work for my phone for some reason; page can't detect "space"-input from touch-keyboard. I did, however, try it out on my Apple keyboard at work. I think I did fairly well (see results attached). I just have a super hard time reading scrolling (especially side scrolling) text like that. Every time the text moves, I lose my focus a bit. Thus I like typeracer more with its actual display of a text. It also helps me at least when the text is actual sentences so my mind can actual plan ahead. :P [attachment file=Screenshot 2019-08-30 10.54.48.png] [a

You'd be surprised how slow the average joe types on keyboards. 25-35 wpm is what most people average around. Might be pushing it up towards 40 wpm with today's generation. I type faster on my touchscreen (at 35-40 wpm) than many of my friends do on their computer keyboards. At 60 you are considered a typist, and that is awesome with a phone!

I have also sent a mail indirectly about this. Let's see what they reply today.

I don't use swyping in landscape mode. Too large distances. I feel we need to set up two divisions here. Physical qwerty in one, and touchscreens in another, otherwise there wont be any use in comparing scores. As can be seen above, physical qwerty beats the living crap out of touchscreen typing.
-
But as far as I understood the reply I got, if you just dont pay your pre-order now and wait until the SCANDI is released and then pay, you SHOULD get the SCANDI version for the pre-order price of 650 EUR. I think that is pretty clear in the replies I got. Or have I misinterpreted it?

Great news everyone! I got permission to share the conversation I've had with the team from FxTec here with you guys. Since the conversation is both about the pre-order pricing and about the Scandinavian keyboard I will post this same message in both threads, so sorry for the spam. This provides some very much needed information, and clears up a lot of things and misconceptions in regards to when and how we are supposed to pay and if a SCANDI keyboard is in works or not. Enjoy the read! :D [attachment file=32486] [attachment file=32487] [attachment file=32488] [attachment file=3

I usually keep an average speed of around 39-41 wpm on my phone (LG G6, with Google Gboard, Scandinavian layout) Keyboard: [attachment file=32475] Average speed shown here at 39, had it up to 40, but forgot to screenshot it [attachment file=32474] Fastest I managed today was 43 wpm [attachment file=32476] Second fastest at 42 wpm: [attachment file=32477] I know that the rules said that I need to post two times that are the same, but if I manage one 42 and one 43, it should cound as two 42 wpm runs at least, right (I highly recommend changing the rules to have counting sc

I have just reveived some more info about this topic from the info-mail, but I am in the process of asking for proper permission to share it with you on the forum. I also requested that someone from their staff would come in here and try to sort out our "mess" here in the forum and clear up misunderstandings both in this thread and in the Scandinavian Qwerty-thread. Let's see what they reply.

I see your point, but ask yourself this: is the keyboard alone worth 350 dollars? In regards to the statement above; Yes I posted that message about the info desk telling me that they would provide a scandi version. Simultaneously they told me I would pay when scandi come available, not before. Now they tell me I have to pay before (unless I want to pay a higher price), and that they MIGHT make a SCANDI. That kind of "misinformation" is what annoys me.
-
Again, you completely ignore (either by choice or by misunderstanding me) my point: I don't think the specs are not enough. I think they are overpriced. Just like a modern Flagship phone from Samsung and Apple too. I complain about them as much. No matter how much 855 you put into a phone, they shoulid not be 1000 dollars! Period. Your analogy to toyota and bently does not really work, because toyota would be xiaomi and Bently would be FxTec in terms of target customer numbers. But whereas Bently provides the utter most luxury for their customers for a premium price, Toyota does not. Which

It is not a matter of "Do I need better specs", it is about "Value FOR the specs". I am completely fine currently with my 821 chip. But I would not want to pay 600 EUR for one now. And no, I don't think the comparison to Xiaomi is unfair at all. If they can provide 2019 specs at 300 dollars, then a small company should be able to provide 2017 (thanks for the correction btw) specs at 300 dollars and then add in the costs for keyboard development and lower numbers. So say 500 dollars. Again, I can accept the 650 eur price, because that is what it was set out to be, but not more. Absolutely not m

I just received a mail telling me to pay now and take advantage of the pre-order price before price is going UP?! I am both angry and confused right now. First of all, FxTec has been telling me that I wont need to pay anything before my desired model (scandi) is going to be manufactured. Simultaneously, they have never mentioned anywhere that the price was going to increase. I thought deal is deal; I pre-ordered for the sum of 650 EUR, and that is my price no matter when I pay (according to the info I have received). But that seem all to change now. I am not willing to throw 650 eur on a p
