Any stock assignment emails to be sent soon? That way I can keep hopes up that mine is contemplated in the next round. Order in the #150XX's. Thanks 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks We are now having batches leaving the factory every week, another one is expected to be in transit between the warehouses by the end of this week, so technically another batch of "stock assigned" letters should be going out early next week. I will provide more detailed info on this today once I get some time :). 4 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Most of us are supporting F(x)tec through and through in the best way we can which is holding on to our preorders and to the edges of our seats. We are rooting for your continued success even if it is against all the odds. 2 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FlyingAntero 860 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 It is nice to see devices delivered 🙂. I will try to keep my spirit up till I receive my unit sooner or later. Just remember to post your feelings as soon you get Pro1 😉. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some will, but I can't confirm that on an individual basis, there may or may not be a lot of people in the queue before you. Each batch now covers between 1-2/10ths of all pre-orders. This might disappoint some, and we understand this given how much all of you had to wait for the device, but the bigger picture is positive - we are producing and shipping devices a lot more frequently now that we addressed production and logistics related issues that were slowing us down. 11 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Looking at the margins you mention in relation to the number of weeks before Christmas, hitting general availability before Christmas may or may not happen. I hope that pans out in a way that works for FxTec, in terms of not missing (too much) of the holiday sales season. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Also, could you share the approximate percent of pre-orders currently reached? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for your answer. I might need a clarification: since my unit has been assigned to batch 2 (I got the e-mail) which has already left China, I don't understand the potential queue you mention. Is batch 2 smaller than expected when assignment letters were sent? [Edit: not asking that with a hostile tone at all, sorry if that was confusing.] I agree that things are shaping up nicely, just not sure I understood what are stock assignments.

It must be few coupons. We know there were only 1653 "backers". Some of these were mere donations, a few got a Mod, and some got a refund...

Thanks a lot for this. I think that a lot of people that were asking for more information wanted info like this. Sure, it's not necessarily as good as "your device is shipping now" or something, but it is info and like you said the bigger picture is positive. This also to me seems like a pretty realistic estimation, compared to some of the previous information we had gotten. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some of these were mere donations, a few got a Mod, and some got a refund... How many that leaves is anyone's guess.. Hmm - yes, your are right. I have almost forgot it but I am afraid I was that who wrote that exact number of backers in a comment. As far as I remember well, there was a list of backers - some of them with names and some of them as Anonymous and maybe refunded state was also there - however, now I have not found that list (maybe because the state of the campaign has changed or because of the elapsed time). However, Liangchen wrote in one of the comments that one day he did 300 refunds and still was refunds pending... So I assume IGG backers who may be still have active coupons may be around 1000 users - a maximum of ~1200 but there may be less than 1000 if a lot of requests happened around the ending of Keyboard Mod or during the waiting for Pro1. ...but after these information we may not request the exact percent of IGG coupons relative to all pre-orders as it may only need some calculations. ...and F(x)tec did not want to provide exact numbers of pre-orders. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
damion 60 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 If there are between a 1/10th and a 1/5th of phones shipping each week and there are only 2 weeks left until Christmas, then it's not pessimistic to say *the majority* of pre-orders won't be completed by Xmas, it's simple maths. Whilst it would be lovely and exciting to get it before xmas, I simply want this phone! I will get it when I get it. I spent money on the Cosmo over 1yr before getting that device. (The next part aimed at F(x)tec) Of course with thousands of well paid engineers here at Google UK's hq, it would definitely be in F(x)tec's benefit to have me walking around showing this phone off! Perhaps I could wander the kilometre or so to your office and grab a box early? ... 2 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kabbone 36 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 it doesn't really matter if anyone get it until Christmas, as long as people see constant output of devices, everyone will calm down, because then it's quite sure just a matter of some weeks until everyone got it. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dreamflasher 120 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Gosh, yeah, if they would have ordered a bunch of phone to be picked up at their office I totally would have made the trip to get it two months earlier^^ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
