"Top reasons why you should NEVER buy Fxtec Pro1x (long story short, I am back at Unihertz Titan)\n\t\t \n\t\n\n\n\n\t\n\n\n\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\tIt looks like eye candy at first glance, but it is ergonomically AWFUL. The guys behind it have ZERO clue about how to do and test the mechanical UX, so:\n\t\t\t\t \n\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe fingerprint sensor is placed in the wrongest possible location: on edge in a place you grip it by accident when you just pick it up from a pocket or from a table. Supplement this with the software defaults -- 10 attempts and you are locked out forever until the system reboot.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe keyboard is decent and APPEARS like it was modeled after the Nokia n950, BUT. You can open n950 or e7 (if you did not have a chance to lay your hands on a development prototype) with one smooth sliding motion. For Pro1x, you need to pry it with your nails, and don't miss what the proper side is! Srsly, Fxtec?\n\t\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tIf you accidentally activate the camera, you cannot simply close it. Before you master this procedure, you will take a few unwanted pictures just by trying to quit the camera app.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe camera protrusion does not allow you to place the phone firmly on the table! I had to glue small pieces of rubber to make it possible. It would not be a problem for a regular phone, but it is a basic operation mode for a horizontal qwerty slider.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\tThanks for the AMOLED, kb button mechanics and Qualcomm chip (old and cheap, but still better than Mediatek), but the rest of the hardware is crap. The camera does not match even today's Chinese midrange phones. The battery life is mediocre at best, and the hinge quality is a silly imitation attempt to Nokia's swan song of qwerty sliders; it does noticeably wobble, so it feels pretty cheap, too. I could understand no 5G/WiFi6 (which I value for energy effectiveness, not the speed), but no wireless charger?\n\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\tSomething is severely wrong with cellular connectivity in particular. It drops out of the network and loses calls and data connection for no apparent reason.\n\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\tIt is extremely fragile and faulty. After two months, I got a crack on the screen glass, I did not drop or put mechanical pressure on it -- just from the internal tension. It was small and tolerable, but one more month later, the charging port died, and it was the end of the story for me and Fxtec (no wireless charging, remember?)\n\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\tThe Indiegogo campaign was on the edge of a scam, all the promises were broken, the communication was full of shit, and to add insult to injury, those who did not fund were able to buy the phone up to 3x cheaper from Expansys with no prepayments and no delays. Also, my second phone (the first one I got from Expansys, of course, because I never got my perk delivered) is stuck in EU customs because Fxtec could not handle shipping and customs properly. If it ever gets released (which I doubt), I'd happily sell it to the highest bidder.\n\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t \n\t\t\n"
