SHIFTphone 8 - phone designed in Germany with physical switches for mic and cameras

3.5mm away from perfection

The replaceable battery has caught my eye. I'm guessing these phones are not available in america? GSMarena doesn't have anything about the company or their phones, and Shiftphone have been around over a decade now. I want to get one but cannot find cellular connection stats.

okay that's insane bang for buck.

the only minor thing I wish they did differently is a physical camera cover for both cameras built into the device. like is standard on laptops these days. the switch is great, but it's still uncomfortable knowing that a camera is pointing at me all the time. my cave man brain needs visible confirmation

I have preordered one a year ago and am excited to finally get it soon. Delivery is planned for mid till end of March. Currently still on my over five year old shift 5me,which I'm gonna miss for the small size it has

I am somewhat concerned about how much of this is white label equipment.

The phone itself looks super cool and is more likely self designed.

The other products like their headphones look suspiciously the Monoprice BT600anc.

Can you use bank apps on this phone?
