Even tho the WiHD is cool it's not a feature I care about.
Tonight like 10:45 PM eastern standard timeIs this a recent interaction from Sammy? Can you post a copy of this conversation?
This is what I think the situation is, based on the information we have. We know the live chat is run by another company and staffed by reps who have nothing to do with Saygus. Initially they were telling us exactly what they had from Saygus, and possibly filling in the holes with what they thought made sense. Now after all the backlash they've been receiving as a result of them giving out misinformation or more accurately outdated information, because Saygus hadn't updated them, they have taken a "we don't know either" approach. That's probably the safest thing they can do to avoid making either side unhappy. It's not the chat reps fault so don't rip on them too bad, just give them the facts and don't make it personal.Tonight like 10:45 PM eastern standard time
Wow...Tonight like 10:45 PM eastern standard time
Haha, seems like Saygus has communication issues with their communication agency.This is what I think the situation is, based on the information we have.

As other forum contributors have pointed out already, even for seasoned smartphone makers there is always the risk of the initial batches having defects that are rectified in future batches - almost always those early adopters who support the device immediately will end up with 'worse' devices than those who are late to the party. The Xperia Z1 Compact 'flash bleed' issue springs immediately to mind as an example that burnt me.so if saygus had to do a change of manufacturer would not that mean that someone would have to pack up all the stuff to move to another site or do companies now lease a site and then the manufacturer sends in a team and in the event of changes it is just a matter of swapping out a team? also, i am thinking there is now a strong possibility that many if not all preorder phones will have issues. is that just the risk of preorder units?
THANK you!! This exactly. Which is why I got tired of them showcasing this everytime in their videos. It ended becoming the only thing they publicized, even at the trade shows. Nothing else worked.Even tho the WiHD is cool it's not a feature I care about.
Would you mind sharing how long you waited once you opened a ticket for a refund? I've been waiting almost a week at this point and haven't gotten any replies on the ticket at all.I have been extremely skeptical about this entire project, and have attempted to make my feelings known on this forum.
I fell in love with the phone when I first read of it early in the year, and paid $549 on Feb 3 in hopes of getting my hands on it soon, but that hope faded in the following weeks and months, and early last week I asked Saygus for a refund. I was very unsure they had any cash left at this late date, but they sent me an email saying they had handed off my request to their credit card outfit.
I just learned that my credit card company received $549 on Sunday, and credited it to my account. I wanted to let everybody
know, once again, "just for the record."
I intend to follow this project, and if the phone eventually gets produced and performs at or near its intended goals, I'll probably purchase one because it seems to have all the specs I'm very interested in having in a single device.
As with everyone else on this forum, I'm still hoping for the very best.
Call Saygu directly, ask them.Would you mind sharing how long you waited once you opened a ticket for a refund? I've been waiting almost a week at this point and haven't gotten any replies on the ticket at all.
"Seth Parker" told me in live chat that their usual refund response time was 10-15 days.
I might do that, but I can't find your post with their number. My xda searching skills aren't that great.Call Saygu directly, ask them.
I made the request to "Samuel Rhodes" on Sunday, May 17. He directed me to a link where I could fill out a request. On that link I included my number in the Saygus ordering queue, and the date of my payment to Saygus, Feb 3.Would you mind sharing how long you waited once you opened a ticket for a refund?

+5I am all over this phone. Definitely going to be my next device.
