I’ve not tried reflashing, but the os seems mostly vanilla android. I’ve had a couple of OS updates since I got my phone, so it’s not just fire and forget. I’m not sure about long term however. You might also have issues with the thermal camera, if you reflash. I don’t know how it’s wired internally, and whether a non custom app will play nice.
They seem to be aiming at builders/workmen as a rugged phone with long battery life. They also seem to be trying to build a proper brand, not just a throw away one. Hopefully that means they will at least do security updates for quite a while. But that’s speculation.
Oh, and it’s a brick, weight wise. I personally like that, but it’s quite polarising when people try it.
Well I just finished looking at their website for 20 minutes.
Those look pretty awesome, and I know that I’d find reasons to use the thermal imaging all the time.
Does it run pure android (site says something like that), can you install your own OS, and how is the update support?
