I’ve heard this phone has a flex type touch screen and not a glass type one. Anyone verify?

If so its like the Vu and Voyager which IMO is a crappy interface.

It is plastic but thats so the buttons have a hunt and peck type feature, its supposed to feel almost like there are keys on the screen. It is not like the voyager at all. Evolve is the only that i know of that handled one.

not sure yet. I’m trying to find out for my channel, I just blasted out an email on it to over 400 resellers. This should be a busy day.

to be clear from what I’ve seen this private sale does NOT look like I can actually buy it… I have a feeling it is just a show & tell.

if evolve finds out differently that would be killer tho :tup:

just because you sell a lot does not mean they aren’t shitty…

example: chevy cobalt, kia rio, etc. etc.

to tell if something is shitty you look at rate of returns.
