    It's actually real now. Wow.
    It reminds me of two things:
    1. IBM WorkPad PDAs that were based off of Palm PDA models and thus ran Palm OS
    2. Motorola phones released in the 2000s that were aimed at businesses (if I recall correctly)

Metal, plastic, glass, ceramic,... each material has its own pros and con, there is no reason to praise a phone just by material. And good specs? lol. Last time I check, plenty of other phone has 8+ gen 1 too, besides any 2023 flagship that has 8/8+ gen 2- There isn't any info about the price for this one yet, so how do you "think" they have good specs? Most ThinkPad doesn't sell for good spec/price, they are a little bit expensive for their specs (and yes, they bring with ThinkPad special to even it like keyboards, trackpoint,.... but that has nothing to do with specs)

      @@YounesLayachi I agree with your point about durability. As one of many Moto loyalists, I can say that is one of the main reasons I have continued to choose Motorola in the first place.
      However, I do agree with 2xwishbone895's concerned about a micro SD card slot and HI-FI audio jack. Cloud storage is useless without Internet (not to mention expensive), so an SD card slot is still a valuable backup for those situations.
      As for sound, what will you do when your Bluetooth headphones die? Hopefully, you weren't listening to something you don't want others to hear when your phone speaker goes on blast. 📱

      This is an underrated point. Companies like Planet Computers and Unihertz exist exactly because of this.
      Blackberry phones were still being manufactured as late as 2018 because all the major companies stop including physical keyboards. Windows Phone might have survived if they had even tried to include one.
      Lenovo needs more than "military-spec durability" to stand out in this market. Motorola ALREADY has the reputation of having the most durable build quality, so that's not something "new" for this brand. 🤷

    Not sure it's going to... in a corporate environment the phones are either coming from the carrier contracts where those other companies now have majority of the market, or are bought by corpos themselves. In the latter case extra attention would be given to battery life and extra WiFi hotspot oriented aspects... after all these phones might be given to on-call duty personnel and then not CPU performance is king, but rather guarantee that the employee is reachable across the globe and it is possible to perform work duties using it in case regular network is down at certain locations. Finally, it's going to be the security-first approach to management of devices to keep the devices free of any CSGo similes ;) and to make sure company secrets remain secret and secure...

    • @LouisSubearth
      @LouisSubearth Год назад

      On one of the B-roll shots, a "5G UC" logo is seen, so at least we know T-Mobile will offer this phone, as well as bulk corporate purchases, so either way it's gonna be easy to deploy these phones as well as be readily available for consumers.

    • @marcin_karwinski
      @marcin_karwinski Год назад +1

      @Louis Subearth You're missing my point... Since this device is managed by Motorola in terms of support, potential buyers might not be getting similar support level across the globe compared to already established players, pricing per performance might also not be as enticing... One area motoed Think device could differentiate itself is by offering corporate level of security and mass deployment/management, similar to what they're offering for servers or computers in enterprise fleets. Since no extra special features have been brewed into this mixed product, there's a possibility that many enterprises will actually skip it. Had they already offered an Intel vPro like extension for the phone or have them manageable in greater detail through the Vantage software, it could make more sense for potential buyers to choose these over competitors with established reputation and servicing networks. Of course, if none of these aspects are impacting possible deployment of the devices in their region, then whatever the better contract features would be would skew the managerial decision making to one platform or the other.
      Please bear in mind that if T-Mobile starts to offer them, they'll have to do it worldwide, in all regions, before any chance of being preferred by those in charge... as a company wide (as in global reach corporation) selection approved/tested and supported by internal IT personnel.
