I liked my Ngage but they put the screen the wrong way round and designed it so you couldn't hold it flat to your head when you were making calls so you looked like an idiot. it was a pretty decent phone and with some messing with the OS you could do some good stuff with it.

[@edgarkings4420]

They were never meant to be a phone company. It was more like a jewelry company. People (albeit not a lot of people) did buy them before iPhone came around. Not as big of a failure as you’d think. They had a great clientele of some of the richest people in the world when people didn’t need a new phone and camera every year because they just used phones to text and talk. Vertu also provided personal assistant services with the push of a button. That was a very popular feature.

[@primalconvoy]

Currently, Amazon has a similar app, that can use photo recognition and/or a barcode scanner, to allow people to scan products in shops and see if they're cheaper at Amazon. In this way, we can go window shopping (handy for clothes, and other items we don't feel confident just ordering "blindly" online) and then we can order them from Amazon later. I'm sure most of us have five something similar, even if it's just by going to Amazon's website on our phones to check prices while at a physical shop.

[@pingwingugu5]

@@primalconvoy I avoid checking a product in physical store and then buying it online. It feels wrong and is just not fair for the physical stores. They need to pay rent, staff, present the product and deal with shoplifters. I'm ok with paying a bit more in physical shop because of that, especially when buying clothes or shoes.

Ok, so I got to test and use the KIN phone for a previous job many years ago. I actually really liked it, and I think it might have gained some ground if it weren't for their data pricing structure. The phone wasn't a smartphone, so it didn't have a full OS or apps. But it did have internet features, so you needed a data plan. You could pay $30 a month for data on a full-fledged smartphone or for a niche feature phone. It just didn't make sense, making the KIN DOA.

We sold maybe 5 units total in the largest store in STL. Less than 4 months later, we had someone come in complaining about a defective piece on it.

In my 6 years working for Sprint, I had never seen them open to swapping out as fast as they did with the Echo.
