In the first render it looks sooo good. Waiting for the specs.

With Elephone, by the time the phone actually appears in the wild, it will be sadly out of date.

Elephone have given themselves a poor reputation. They advertise devices on their site for months and then they just disappear without any explanation, the X1 and Z1 for example. Plus they upload images that bear no resemblance to the final product, when the S8 was first added to their site it looked like it’s Samsung namesake. Then it finally got released and turned out to be completely different. I wouldn’t be surprised if they do something similar here and it actually only has 2.5D glass and squared screen corners. It’s a shame as when I first heard about them, they’d just released the S3 which, even now, looks great and is more than capable for it’s price. I can’t help but think they try too hard to get attention.

  S8 is always like Xiaomi Mix, not like Samsung S8, the first time they released the information bout S8 is like Xiaomi Mix, a bezel-less phone. If you know more about this brand, you will see Z1 already released to crowdfunders,and they did not say they have X1.

  http://www.elephonestore.com/elephone-x1-dual-curved-smartphone-blue.html no X1 huh? Looks like one right there. To quote you, “if you know more about this brand” you’d know this. I also have no idea what you’ve said re naming.
