    I have mixed feelings about this device. I like the ingenuity of the aesthetics and everything but problem is if you buy the back plates and the accessories the value pretty much goes out the window. Once you add the three back plates and the three accessories all of a sudden the phones double the cost or more. That point you could get a OnePlus 12R or a pixel 8A or something.
    The other issue is having a removable back and not making it so you can remove the battery is just ridiculous.
    I do not be grudge them however for avoiding the US market officially. US market sucks for a new phone companies and even any phone company that's not Apple basically or maybe Samsung. Countries cultural obsession with Apple makes it so 90% of people under 20 are using an iPhone and Samsung and iPhone collectively account for 93% of carrier sal.
    At that that a new company coming in has to pay for certifications and access to the carrier infrastructure and it's just not worth it.
    So they're doing the half-assed approach by letting people buy from America as part of a beta program and not promising them much of anything in terms of reliability. It's at least a little more direct than going through something like giztop.

      About the price point, it’s fine, you aren’t required to buy everything else that the phone comes out with, it’s not a required purchase. In a vacuum, it’s a good phone for $200.
      Everything else you said is spot on. The battery being a pain point is a big thing, but I also agree that it is at least still better than say, what Apple is doing, where even accessing the battery in the first place is a PITA.

      @NeroVingian40 I feel as if the battery's only a paint point for folks because they have access to it. In reality, it lasts over a full day on a charge and shouldn't need to be swapped out for (at least) a couple years. We're pretty far off from the days where swapping packs midday is a necessity.

      We don't have info on WhatsApp since we don't use it. However, we haven't noticed any lagging or slowdowns for UA-cam, web browsing, or any other app (outside pushing the phone hard in emulators). There've even been a couple updates since the review that've made gestures and animations feel a bit smoother.

      Screen had white line down middle sent phone back and they refused to repair the phone but they would repair it for 100

      Tbh, a $100 screen replacement doesn't seem unreasonable for a device that doesn't come with an extended warranty plan

    Failure after 1 month seems wrong but the we are not getting paid to review a inferior product
