This looks cool but... I'm nervous about pre-ordering from a company I've never heard of. Anyone know anything about these guys?
If they actually end up making a product you’ll just be able to buy it. Wouldn’t preorder. Concept is cute though, I LOVE eink displays.
Yep, all this. Also worth pointing out that none of the news outlets they're quoting have actually seen or used the device, they're all fawning over the idea of the thing.
Yeah, and even "fawning" is generous. One just says, "There are some aspects of the Minimal Phone that sound appealing." Not exactly a rave review
I recently saw a review of a similar phone, it's pretty crazy cool really!

Sucks that dude ends up breaking everything he ever reviews after testing it, but that's like part of his thing.
The display really is a live realtime display. Although it only displays in monochrome, the camera actually records in full color, once you upload the photos and video to another platform anyways.
Being that it's a live active e-ink display, it'll gradually start showing 'ghosting' of sorts, but it has a dedicated full screen refresh button to clear any ghosting artifacts.
