The Turing Phone prioritizes security, inside and out. But along the way it definitely makes some choices different from just about any other Android device.

the skin looks like a horrible 3d launcher from 2010
Looks like a skin people still make for 3D launcher today.
ImRedBlueGreen I don't even know why OEMS still bother with skins. Just use the aesthetics of Stock Android and add your software gimmicks to it.
ImRedBlueGreen actually flat OS is sooooooooooooooo last millenium
It was just a demo of what they're using and Josh said that the company said that the software will completely look different from the sample. Listening is key people.
Jeus Lau "the kind of design language they will be looking for" even if he says it will be completely different... the look might be the same.
yes.. listening is key.
Looks amazing!
No headphone jack!
Fuck this!
Exactly what I said
Exactly what I thought when I heard that part
skooL exactly my thought process
***** Audiophiles will have a bitch fit if their phone doesn't have a headphone jack, but I think most people in general would be like WTF!?
WT Cold I have a gear circle but I'm not paying $600 for that bulky crap.
*Turing Phone first look: a focus on security, inside and out*
Read the article on AndroidAuthority.com: goo.gl/Oxf309
Today we're looking at a device that truly takes a different approach and gives us a unique addition to the Android ecosystem. Enter the Turing Phone, a smartphone promising a set of foolproof security measures inside and out.
By *****
Some very cool details there. Loving the design direction, the material experimentation, and the whole wires-are-passé notion. Here's hoping it inspires the mainstream manufacturers, at the very least. :)
No headphone jack? Ouch!
No micro USB? No, just no! At least they could've put Thunderbolt (although I'm sure Apple would sue them to oblivion if they did). Proprietary connector and data transfer software. Please no.
Admittedly, the water and shock proofing is something that the smartphone market desperately needs, though. Kudos for that.
These look amaZing
Nope
At first sight, some weeks ago, I wanted this phone. No longer. No headphone jack, sometimes my Bluetooth headset need to be charged, and I use my corded ear buds. No micro USB, I can only use a proprietary connector, which if I get a short in the cord, I can't run to target/walmart and pick one up. And only connect to pc using proprietary software, possible only to install on Windows or Mac. I use Linux/ChromeOS. I'm assuming it won't be available for a Chromebook or Ubuntu. Proprietary skin used on Android also. Using a Launcher, icons, rooting or a custom rom is out. People use Android for freedom to choose how we use our devices. Being restricted, may as well use Apple or Windows. I really wanted to like this phone. Oh well...
No USB? No headphone jack? and a Destiny rip off logo snapdragon 801 for $610?!
Now I know where destiny ripped off their logo from.
Diaconu Catalin Nah, even though I think destiny is shite, this company just kind of showed up.
Void of Space and Time Turning Robotics has been around for longer that Destiny has been in development....
Erik Torres I'm pretty sure the company has been around far longer than Destiny.
Petey it has, this phone itself has been in development for almost 3 years.... the company has been producing medice and robotics for i think atleast 5yrs.
cable will always be more secure than wifi
I bet they don't want people rooting this phone
***** Those people don't even now this brand. They'll only buy Samsung, HTC, or Motorola, IF they don't buy an iPhone first. And those people who do know about this, like me, i honestly believe this phone is fucking with you. No USB transfer and no jack.
Reydus FX
This company will likely be out of business within a year.
Reydus FX Let me narrow your list for you. If you dont own an IPhone, you own a Samsung. People don't even know much about HTC or Motorola
Aiden James I'll take my OnePlus One or Nexus 6 any day over Apple or Samsung
Sponsored by destiny?
So an unfinished product with a shitload of connection isuues? No thanks
Flavio A yes you are right. For this price I could get 2 one plus ones
That's like the first thing I noticed when he showed the phone and the box
Something missing in this video :

Joshua's salute.
I'm i the only one who notices that?
Mustapha Benalouane He is so disrespectful!!!
"messing"
You came to this video to watch him salute?
I was thinking the exact same thing!
enemybird absalutely.
over a year later, and we still haven't seen a review yet
because they decided to use Sailfish OS instead of Android
No headphone jack r u kiddin
Bluetooth? Bluetooth should be the standard now.
slicvm not really...
slicvm Bluetooth is shit. Wireless is and will always be worse than wired headphones.
BandNerdcp Yup. Phone OEMs already ignore audio quality enough as it is. This is just a huge slap in the face for people who want to have a decent listening experience on their phone.
BandNerdcp If all of our music wasn't in a digital format, that would be true. But it is. ALL digital. Unless your phone has a record player built in. Digital music loses nothing over wireless.
tries to be secure but uses internet only for data transfer fuck this phone
did you not learn anything from the NSA affaire get the fuck outta here
wifi transfer doesnt need the internet
Chmpp92 wifi is internet, dimwit
distinguished master guardian the phone will use the local network to transfer files. you dont need an internet connection for that
Void of Space and Time No it's not.
"No headphone jack" - Turing did it first!!!!!
Manuel J. apple copied it..😂😂
you forgot about oppo r5, slim design no handphone jack
I thought that it was a Nextbit Robin with a colorful case😂😂😂(back view)
ramc pante same!
ramc pante same
Removing the headphone jack before it was cool.
Why the destiny logo
ikr
Because it's their "destiny" to make this phone popular... XD
no
*At first i was like fuck yeah but then i was like fuck nah*
Bungie getting into the cell phone market.
Lmao, no headphones... No USB, a proprietary charger and software... Also it looks like Ed Hardy designed this.
That look like the Destiny logo lol
should be called the destiny phone
+Blinged Vader Sweet, totally :p what if it started playing an edited version of Remembrance on boot, or any Destiny soundtrack.
This phone is also a overhyped, half-baked disappointment, so that name/analogy is appropriate.
yea
It probably uses some chinese MTK ;)
No headphone jack is just irrational. Bluetooth tech will never replace wired end of story: its less reliable, harder to use, your listening device needs battery, incompatible and most importantly, there are very few Bluetooth earbuds out there and that's what 95% of people use, your not gonna lug your giant audio technica's on to the subway are you? This phone better come with it's own headphone or its gonna be a deal breaker for 90% of costumers. Also, proprietary software for PC? What is this, 2006?
Michael Cottow uhm..bluetooth or other wireless means that might come will eventually kill the need for cables. It'll just rise in speed and energy efficiency so much that cables will be a hassle. Because cables get damaged far more easily than the actual listening device, especially if you, as you said, take it to the subway.
But besides the point, we're not at that point yet..and this phone is kinda silly, seems to be made for rich people that have extremely important data to keep in their devices apparently. Still i don't think anyone needs that much security. There are plenty of decent security solutions in Android and Apple app markets, I think.
The PowerBeats 2 are extremely popular… not saying they are good, but a lot of people _do_ have Bluetooth headphones.
Lmao this guy. Stuck in the past and shit. "Wireless isn't the future " you born 40 years to early, or to late.
Michael Cottow "Also, proprietary software for PC? What is this, 2006?" ^^ an still apple sells a shitload :) but yeah youre right no one needs another apple . Android with proprietary cable and software what a great step backwards
? what are the best wired headphones on the market?
I might be alone here, but I really like the look of the phone.
How much it is costing?
Zahid Khan It will cost you about $700 - $800, I suppose.
alan turing is crying in his grave
why so?
***** because someone called this marketing bullshit turing phone
Oh OK... Im not good at the marketing industry
This guy don't know who he was so don't scratch your head
Looks like the phone was designed with MKBHD in mind
looks to be an interesting phone in the world of thousands of similarly looking phones.
I love how Joshua speaks...fast yet able to hear it !
that Destiny logo look a like on that phone
No wired data transfer? They're going for secure but they ignore something like that? And another proprietary charging port? Ugh.
"liquidmormphium"
I died.
No data port? How do they get software installed?
I guess now I understand why they couldn't get you a working unit, lol.
why does it have the destiny tricorn?
Is that a destiny logo on the phone and box
Do we know what the internal specs are/will be?
Turing Robotics sounds like some mega-corporation in a sci-fi movie. Phone looks pretty unique though.
So this is where the no headphone jack trend came from...
Why would wireless data transfer be more secure than a physical connection?
Jake Orabanec i think using a wired data transfer might affect the phone because of the auturun or lets say viruses.
Jake Orabanec Well, he said you can only transfer by wifi USING TURING'S PROPIETARY SOFTWARE, it seems like the software is required to transfer the data.
Will be trying to get one of these as soon as I can
Thank goodness this has nothing to do with Alan Turing's legacy.
Holy shit! $740 it looks like a $3000 phone.
Wayne Kosimoto It looks like a $3 phone . . .
ihave7sacks XD
Wayne Kosimoto Having a unique design does not make it look like a "$3000 phone"
vpie647 Having an overcomplicated design is usually taken to extreme price ranges.
Ferrari, Vertu, etc.
ihave7sacks Even a nokia doesn't cost $3.
Isn't the phone's logo the same logo as that Destiny video game?
jrjubach Similar. The circle isn't there in destiny logo xD
Nah the destiny logo has a oval inside but at the top. But we all kno whos getting sued
I was about to say that
***** This company has been around far before destiny even started development, so if anything, Bungie copied them. But I can see how it could just be a coincidence, I mean the shape of it with the 3 little bulges is a pretty common shape. The Avast logo is the same but with 4 bulges instead of 3.
I was just thinking the same thing lol
all right . and where you can buy ??
That interface looks so awesome.
tribute to Alan Turing?
yeah
Best reviewer Of android authority since day one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
#JoshuaIsBack 🙌
Any update on this phone? Is it out yet? Speed test, camera test?
Yay Josh is back!
I stop the review video once it said "there's no headphone jack..."
You and Michael Fisher, almost have the same voice and way of narrating.
you can use bluetooth as well.. hahaha!
you mean mr mobil michael fisher
one of the most beautiful and unique smartphones i have ever seen .. thumbs up !!
Will this phone be on any carriers or just a unlocked off carrier?
Who else saw the Turing logo and thought Destiny?
same here should we tell?
***** that's what I thought!!! seriously think there going to get sued bc it looks like its a phone straight off destiny, exp with tho's textures on the back and colors mize well of called the diff color's shaders....altho destiny would be smart to team up with them since they obviously made a decent looking device and with destiny being a 10 year game they could build a bigger market out side of the game instead of selling destiny boble heads and toys and t shirts....
+Samriddha Basu (The Dork Knight) The exotic turing phone: Contains headphone jack roflmao
No headphone jack? Check.
No USB transfers? Check.
Design that looks like a bad take at modern art? Check.
Price at 600? Check.
Launcher that looks like the ones you used to get just to test the 3D out? Check.
What is the material that had drop test in the video? Auto closed caption keep showing me Liquid Morphine 😣
any idea of its availability in the UK? contracts etc?
really, no headphone jack? the headphone jack is not the past and wired will ALWAYS be superior, especially for hifi audio
where can i buy this phone?
this is just prototype, the original working cell isn't launched yet
fak, K.
California made . almost revealed there..
lol you are an indian how will you buy it
too expensive
Isn't that the symbol from Destiny?
but vary nice.
The turing phone comes with its own bluetooth enabled earphones in the box which will sort of make up for the lack of earphone port. By the attention to detail they have showed so far, I think it will be seamless with the software and could be the future.
Destiny phone so school
that ui is hideous
Android Authority from 00:52-1:17 was my favorite part of this video 👍⬆
Where from you get this phone. I want to mean that did you get it from market or from online site. If you had get this from online site then please give the name and the link of the site. Because i really want this phone from my heart.
sad to see all these ppl trying to use their phones look to get laid :P who cares about the look, if the performance and power is good. but yeah, im still waiting for the dual sd830 and 12gb ram version :P
that looks ugly
How to buy
I'd rock this! I love the design!
Android phones keep getting uglier every time a new company makes a new one. Stick with the all time fav Samsung, Sony, LG, Lenovo etc.
Please do spread a stupid opinion this is unique not ugly.
Unique? Hahahah let's stick with ugly
+Akash Rana How about you keep your biased opinions to yourself, because you've obviously never held one before, and are just making fun of it because it's different.
+Akash Rana But, you're making a decision without taking in everything. Oh, and you've also never seen every company's offer to the Android ecosystem, so again, you don't have an unbiased opinion.
That's an ugly phone
like my bf
Ty Miller Yes it absolutely is!
Ty Miller
I'm excited to see the specs. Hopefully all the good hardware features don't lead to overheating or stammer in the software. Please give us some good news and see if the software keeps up.
When will the _Grand Turning_ phone be released?
Ugliest phone I've ever seen lol
i know right
Are you talking about the iphone7? :)
Have you seen the iphone7?! lol
Defensive Wounds haaa haaa..you right..
this phone is ugly as fack! 😲💩
I think it looks great! Thinking way outside the box rather than looking like everyone else is just how I like it!
Korndogg It is very high end phone. looks don't when you will use that
It has specs from 2014, that's not high end.
Agreed.
iPhone is *UGLIER*
Ok so are they saying that data transfer over wifi is more secure than being physically tethered to your computer for transferring data? I would imagine it might be easier to snatch info from a wifi signal. No?
from where do you get this product
that is one ugly looking phone
Where to buy this phone and what is the price of phone..i searching it so long already
When will this mobile launch in india and at what price
Love the design!
does it supports android, i saw one article about the review of this phone,there it was say that it wont support android apps.
How much is it going to cost
what is the band you are wearing at 2:20?
Whats the update? Get on it. I want to see the OS in action and first impressions
What kind of elaborate charging (only) port needs 9-pin connection ?
Where it is available
Plz plz try to get the red white combo unit
Glad to see something different this looks promising will follow this to see where it goes.
But will they include wireless headphones/headset ?
locks so smart back side ....back side is best style love it
With usb-c 3.1, mostly stock android m, and a headphone jack, I would consider. Liquidmorphium sounds interesting to!
The name is kind of ironic in that Alan Turing is such a famous code breaker.
ok i love the design on the back :P
I wish this had come out!!! damn
Are these still for sale?
what is price of this phone?
Where can we buy this?
Can i have a link to get one.
how d u get it?
Giveaway is coming quick soon, right? lol, good looking, quite unique and I like it!
where can I buy it?
I love the design of these phones. Definitely something different to everything that's currently out there. Also a huge fan of how they've incorporated wireless charging and data transfer
Those prices are absolutely outrageous, that thing better turn into a ghost and follow me around for that price.
Where you can buy that phone
