I'm totally puzzled why the qwertZ keyboards have been unavailable for so long. I have several wild guesses but no knowledge.
Out of curiosity, what are your guesses?

There is a LOT of difference in hand-carrying a few devices through, or to have a third party factory doing everything from scratch to send.
I would not be at all surprised if these ten were produced before the campaign even started, and only needed some final touch like packing was left. Or that they just had ten new blue shells and moved over the interiors from ten Pro1s manually. (But I'm guessing here)Quite possible, but still an achievement in planning. If the devices arrive before Christmas, it will an achievement of logistics. Either way, good for them. (wouldn't mind them hand-crafting a couple of QWERTZ-Pro1 devices though...)

(This is a very limited batch of just 10 devices)
Still, aren't those the first devices f(x)tec ever delivered on time? That's impressive, all things considered. Not being salty, but rather happy that planning and production seem to recover nicely.

Sorry to everyone for yet another topic on the matter, but I have the feeling that the forum is filling up with owners' talk (which is great, since that means many people have got their phones, even though those are mostly QWERTY people) and unfulfilled orders are a bit on the backburner right now.
My order is for a QWERTZ, placed on 20th November 2019 (order number 42XXX), back when my boss' biggest worry has been the Brexit and not COVID-19 (he paid for the phone). Last update we've got has been on 18th August 2020, which was probably a generic mail for everyone -- QWERTZ has been out of stock ever since, presumable because of missing parts for the keyboard. At the same time, Pro1x is getting all the attention and presumably production capacities, boasting that same QWERTZ keyboard in addition to several other layouts.
So while I'm happy that f(x)tec seems to be doing well after all that's happened, judging by the Pro1x campaign and the fact that they are shipping first devices from that batch before Christmas, I have to wonder what's happening with the outstanding Pro1 devices. In particular prospective QWERTZ owners seem to have been forgotten. Maybe @Erik or @Waxberrycan shed a bit of light on our perspective: are those devices in the pipeline? Do we have to cancel our orders and switch to QWERTY? Might we even get a Pro1x-QWERTZ instead? And the most important question is: what is the time frame for everything that might happen?
Thank you for understanding.

The majority of the orders are complete. It's only natural for people to discuss a problem in the community, not the lack of. We barely ever hear from the customers who have received their devices in contrast to those who haven't.
Ordered and paid 20th of November 2019, QWERTZ, to Germany. Still waiting. Are you sure the majority of orders has been completed? Should I be sending a mail to [email protected]?

Status on QWERTZ Pro1?
in General Discussion

It's perfectly possible that Pro1x hardware is coming from a different manufacturer so that it's slightly incompatible with Pro1, even though it's looking identical visually.
