and I'm assuming it's their flagship

2017-09-19 09:08:26 UTC  

because they got no other products to become their flagship

>So, we’re currently working with a pre-made mould from a Chinese manufacturer, the one you see on Alibaba. However, the ordinary person cannot reasonably purchase the one on Alibaba as the minimum order is 3,000 phones. We’re working with the mould, making customization and improvements, such as the upgrade to the front camera and the upgrade to Android 7.0, and introducing it to the North American market.

One of the biggest issues of buying a device from China is the quality. We have spent more than a year testing different prototypes and working with different manufacturers, seeing what is available, what matches our requirements and making adjustments to it accordingly. We’ve also been working closely with the manufacturer’s quality assurance engineers, as well as our own Ahmad Ammar who worked for Blackberry for seven years, to make sure everything is up to our standards.

>glorified group buy

2017-09-19 09:09:04 UTC  

testing prototypes is real QA :^) of course!

2017-09-19 09:09:17 UTC  

oh man

2017-09-19 09:09:20 UTC  

that poor poor shitskin

2017-09-19 09:09:30 UTC

2017-09-19 09:09:35 UTC  

he got some aosp from xda

2017-09-19 09:10:17 UTC  

How the fuck did it even get this far? Did they think clockboy's second cousin would be making phones in his garage?

2017-09-19 09:10:31 UTC  

I guess certain slurs are not entirely necessary since we're not on /pol/ here

2017-09-19 09:10:48 UTC  

true, but it stands

2017-09-19 09:11:03 UTC  

working with mediatek chips in general is just

2017-09-19 09:11:04 UTC  

oh man

>How good is the processor?

It's pretty damn good, it can run pretty much anything you throw at it without a hitch.

2017-09-19 09:11:59 UTC  

A52 cores are of course good

2017-09-19 09:12:08 UTC  

if all you do is browse facekek

2017-09-19 09:12:21 UTC  

but there's a reason that Qualcomm sell so much

2017-09-19 09:12:29 UTC  

tis their tech inside

2017-09-19 09:12:33 UTC  

even if it's the same cores it's the DSP, GPU and ISP tech that Qualcumm have

2017-09-19 09:12:47 UTC  

Mediatek SOCs can be licensed for virtually no money

2017-09-19 09:12:54 UTC  

which is why so many use them

2017-09-19 09:13:02 UTC  

>16MP camera

2017-09-19 09:13:07 UTC  

Same goes for Mali 400 cancer GPU

2017-09-19 09:13:10 UTC  

it's basically free

2017-09-19 09:13:17 UTC  

I bet money

2017-09-19 09:13:31 UTC  

you can keep the costs of a Mali 400 under two digits under certain circumstances

2017-09-19 09:13:34 UTC  

that that camera is running at 8MP due to the ISP not handling 16MP cameras

2017-09-19 09:14:25 UTC  

Numbers add up if you combine the selfie camera

2017-09-19 09:15:36 UTC  

hmm should I get a GPD XD or save for a GPD Win

2017-09-19 09:16:17 UTC  

def go for win

2017-09-19 09:16:46 UTC  

I heard GPD Win 2 is coming out in 2018

2017-09-19 09:16:49 UTC

2017-09-19 09:16:56 UTC

2017-09-19 09:17:01 UTC  

and save money

2017-09-19 09:34:35 UTC

2017-09-19 09:34:42 UTC

2017-09-19 09:42:13 UTC
