i wonder if they're gonna ramp up the pricing as well just as a bonus for people.

Most likely inferior cameras, display, speakers and vibration motors compared to iqoo yet they're still gonna charge more. Despite the fact that i find the iqoo's price hikes horrible, every other phone's price hike is just disgusting.

    Plus, since they're not releasing a global version or any other version of it, there's no global ROM to flash it to, so it probably wouldn't work unless on WiFi, and to do anything with it other than set the time the user would have to read Cantonese or Mandarin.

      Still, most won't be able to buy it without importing it by yourself from China and taking a risk warranty-wise 😁
