So I took some and will explain my thoughts so far.
Note: Other then using the pen once to make sure my screen worked correctly I have not put on the glossy screen protector and have ordered a supposedly matte one so will chime in on that at a later date.
1. The weight is not to heavy in the hand and I think distributed well.
2. Battery seems about on par with the Mars so far in standby and slightly less then it in use (I keep WIFI and BT off if i'm not getting books/docs).
3. The screen is hard to tell in the pictures but it is slightly grayer then the Mars and T80S.
4. The backlight is basically the same temp as the Mars on each color but the Mars can get much brighter so gets a much fuller overlay. This I thought at first was going to be an issue but I got used to it and never use the full backlight of the Mars anyways as I keep it mixed.
5. Both of my devices (Mars, Mimas) came with a bad pixel in a random spot and it's not worth returning over but still sucks. You can only really tell on an inverted screen (black background) and it does not impede use.
6. The physical buttons feel pretty mushy instead of clicky (personal preference I guess)
7. I'm glad my device came in one piece since the box was banged a little bit.
8. Bouye really needs to host all the FW for this device and other Boyue devices so advanced users even with the stipulation you void your warranty can recover their devices in the case of an issue. Using RKtool is not that hard if you have done any other flashing for other devices before IMO. This is also important if it is the only way we get Android 8 in the future if it will run well on the Mars/Mimas.
