maybe they reli need something to differentiate themselves from mix... hence why the camera is on top... for some mi mix users... its reli weird to have a camera at the bottom part... when selfie they have to rotate their phone....  biggrin.gif  biggrin.gif

Actually camera in bottom is not a correct location but that the only way now to make it more bezeless.

Haha possible also they want something special.

The pre-production set bottom 2 corner is not rounded.

From the video, you will always see a center hole from time to time when using the phone include taken photo time. hmm.gif

I reserved one set for myself last night.
they have not mentioned any other detail like the release date or my position in the queue.
Just have to wait for them to inform me to make payment and proceed.

Do some review when you get the phone. smile.gif I am interesting but too bad I don't stay at US or know anyone there. Gonna need to wait it announcement of international release.

sure will do.
I can help you or anyone here who is interested to get this, non profit based,  but essential had not made any key info on this public.
They just told that I'm on the list and no date or token number given. Not even a confirmation email from them.
I can promise to help. Rest is on their hands.
*
Thanks for the offer. I decide wait first see how the review and international price and warranty availability. Not urgent. smile.gif

Received my smoked black Ringke Fusion. I'm liking it as it provide really good grip while gaming and also make the audio louder somewhat.

On my wife S8+ with Samsung SP, I use my fingernail to slid the edges over the SP. Not sure if it will last as it moved slightly compared to my S8 version which fits more tightly.

Maybe need for it to launch and view some reviews first. Don't know how the camera and sound performs yet. Price is not much difference compared to more famous flagships.

Possible also, not a single review at all for the moment. Not even have hands-on.
