Sounds amazing, doesn’t it? The good news is they really did manage to fit all of that into a phone. The bad news it’s more of a proof-of-concept right now. The device we used in the video was literally glued together (we could see the dry glue). It’s hard to tell if this device will ever be available.
Unfortunately, we see devices like this a lot at CES. Tons of promise and potential, but we rarely ever hear from them again. What do you think of the Saygus V2? Would you be interested in these incredible specs at the expense of the support and credibility of a small manufacturer?
