An amazing device...for the right user
By Omar N. Zahran on Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2022
Full disclosure: I bought this device as a secondary device. A small portable tablet mostly for at-home use. And for that use case, it is an incredible value. It does take some time to get used to the form factor as each individual screen is wider than your average iPhone, Pixel, or Galaxy screen. It is almost reminiscent in width of the old BlackBerry Passport from years ago.When you start using this device, you start to see the benefit of having two screens. Opening a link in an email that just opens on a second screen. Browsing Twitter on one screen and watching a video on the other. It is a true multitasking champ. It's only been a few days but the performance has been overall pretty smooth, with a few frame drops here and there but nothing that is a deal breaker.I have been using this as a reading device to catch up on the news, manage my accounts, and so on. I will say that the camera is not good. It's perfectly fine as a webcam but that's about it, which makes this hard to recommend as your primary phone. And because of the aspect ratio, some social media apps like Instagram might present themselves as a little weird.This phone is just so much fun to use and I am sure you will find ways to utilize its very unique form factor the more that you use it. The gap in the middle does make spanning both screens a little challenging depending on the app but I actually like reading articles using this method in portrait orientation. So the bottom line is if you are looking for a secondary device as a compact tablet or even if you are looking for a good phone at a great price and camera performance isn't important to you, this is a great buy!

Not ready for prime time
By Marcus and Mandy on Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2022
I still use a cell phone for phone calls. This phone with a protective case over it can't be opened/flipped all the way back to take a call...It needs a speaker on the outside(non screen side). Without the protective cover, making a phone call is fine.However, this phone needs a protective cover if it is to last.Several apps did not function well with the two screens...Like the two screens, the apps were disconnected on this phone.It's really too bad because I like the form factor, the weight, etc.I am not sure if phone manufacturers know this or not, but people like me who have used mobile phones since 1995 look at the aftermarket or OEM protective case before making a decision on a mobile phone. Why? I've messed up several phones over the years by dropping them.As an example, the large iphone and galaxy, I stay away from. Because if I purchase a beefy protective case, it makes the form factor of the phone way too large.
