Anyone going too buy this?

 

I would love too see Linus review this.

I've wanted an ubuntu phone for ages, thing is, android is so good now I think I will find it hard to switch.

It doesn't really excite me though.

 

The crowdfunding one did, it had really high-end specs and stuff... This doesn't, so I won't be buying into Ubuntu phone.

are they being sarcastic?

Tried it on my Nexus 7, its horrible, like really horrible. It has the most unintuitive UI and control system ever invented, honestly its like they were being deliberately obtuse when they designed it.

 

It will come and go in time, meanwhile Android 6 will come and stay, then 7, then 8...

Since the Ubuntu Edge project failed, they scaled their specs back. Instead of making a high-end phone that can also be used as a computer, they are now making a low to mid-end device. Not so different to how Mozilla is doing with Firefox OS.

The worst part is that it seems that they're going to market "qHD" as "QHD."
