The review is a bit late, but it’s fairly detailed and informative.

    Oh, I see. Was wondering what all the fuss is about. Originally I assumed it was a budget (but maybe quality) Android alternative to something like Samsung, so the price surprised me.

      It’s going to be a continuation of their previous products. It’s just greenwashing through and through. Their update guarantees are worthless, because they don’t invest in fixing any of their annoying bugs. I have a FP4 and Android Auto is still broken as fuck. Within the 2 years I had it, they didn’t release a single fix in that area.

      The fingerprint sensor is a piece of garbage that fails constantly and gets stuck in “clean sensor” faults until you reboot the phone. Also not fixed in its entire life time so far.

      It’s great that you can replace parts, but even with all parts new it’s a garbage phone. Maybe they can’t even fix these things, because they used inferior hardware where they don’t even have control over the problematic behavior.

      They continue to release new garbage to the market and they really do not give a single fuck about the quality of the products they already released to market. They just don’t have any good products. Sure there are people who claim “it works for me”, but the bugs are real and so is the poor customer care of this company. Stay away as far as possible. You’re being scammed.

        Thank you for sharing your real thoughts and being straightforward. Very educational. Appreciated. Not many people here have the balls to say the hard truth, for whatever reason.
