But… it’s a mockup. Non functional piece of plastic. Prototype pls.
Yeah a lot are waiting for it. But the device is 6+ months away. Most phones wouldn’t be discussed that early. I think with this company being new to the market and small they do need the cash flow of the preorders to make it happen. I would think very differently of say, Samsung doing this.
Supposedly the ones shown off did have the actual keyboard and display hardware in it.
I get it and I like the people behind it, but 6 months is very short in terms of hardware / software design. There should definitely be something more tangible there.
If they have the completed keyboards and displays and assemblies in hand it doesn’t seem too bad. Like I said most phones aren’t announced until closer to launch.
Maybe this is dumb, but every photo I see, it doesn’t have tactile markers for the home row.
I really liked that about my old phone with a keyboard and it feels like an important feature to me but maybe it’s not as important as I think it is.
I don’t see a slot for speakers at the top. Can you hold this up to your ear to take calls like a regular cellphone?
It’s a regular phone so yeah.
It’s hard to see on the white model but I’m pretty sure you can see it at the top of the darker models in this photo
Ah. I see. That’s quite subtle compared to the slots at the bottom. Thanks.
