My GUESS would be that the remaining Pro1 is in Batch1 as well as the first orders and perks. But it MIGHT not be as simple as a number-split There are still Pro1 pre-orders, where people have opted for Lineage or Ubuntu on Pro1x upgrade, so these are surely postponed. There is also a question of keyboard layouts -- we've been hearing pretty much nothing about that, I wouldn't rule out only QWERTY being in the first batch. I've ordered my Pro1 with QWERTZ in November 2019, with QWERTZ being one of the reasons I never got it. Sure hope this is not a problem for Pro1x, fingers crossed.... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I may have misunderstood them, but if I remember correctly they stated they will send them all out with Android now for everyone and you can flash your own OS later. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you placed an order, you're entitled to know what your batch # is. Since they didn't proactively inform customers of their batch # (which would have been trivial to do), our only option is to ask. It's their job and duty to answer customer emails. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Everyone would have been "entitled" to so much since the Pro1 was introduced in 2019, and we could have defined "their job and duty" to include all kinds of stuff of which we now know that they've notoriously neglected it. In the end, I don't care, as long as I get that phone, whenever that will be. I've been waiting since September 2019 for their phone, and when I get it, the fact alone will be a major miracle in my book. And I definitely prefer getting my phone over getting metadata about its shipping, and I won't ask them about that metadata because it won't accelerate the delivery. In the worst case, it will slow down the delivery. Soon enough we'll all know whether our phones were in batch one or two... 1 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When the first report they got a mail, we can expect all in the first batch to get a similar mail within few days. Those of us that do not, well we (or they) are in batch 2.... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sequestris 710 Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Someone sent me a PM saying that they did not believe the shipping time for my order. I get it. Sometimes communicating might be hit or miss. But I wanted to show that they are good to their word when they can be. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jlavi 112 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Are the phones now in FedEx storage waiting for someone to process them? Perhaps FedEx still does not have a shipping slot for them yet and it would be awkward to send tracking ID showing nothing happening. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps FedEx still does not have a shipping slot for them yet and it would be awkward to send tracking ID showing nothing happening. When my Pro1 was shipped, it sat on FedEx for several days doing nothing on the tracking over a weekend before moving. So I suspect the slow down is actually the logistics company managing the shipping. I assume they create the labels and then, when all id ready (probably the whole batch), provide the label information to FedEx for pickup. FedEx just scans when they pick the batch up. Now this is all speculative. Don't know how this really works. For the Pro1, the logistics company was Expansys. Don't know who they are using now.

dlmarquis 20 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 I'm in batch 1, and it looks like my package is currently crossing the pacific (HK International is in Lantau). I'm surprised that I'm in the first batch; I ordered off the fxtec website on 06 August 2021. 3 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hook 3,043 Posted July 29, 2022 Share Posted July 29, 2022 Looks like you ordered from the web site. There has been other evidence they are in batch 1, I suspect because there are more legal protections for actual customers and you really are customers and paid more. I am not bothered by that. I would expect, again, from my experience with the Pro 1, that you won't see it move until Monday.. then it will begin moving quickly. Good luck and congratulations! 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like they're doing better this time around: I just got the notification that my phone has landed in Alaska. EDIT: And it's just left Alaska---presumably for the continental US.
