This monstrosity is really ugly but like the old Latin proverb says "de gustibus non est disputandum". A phone with a large camera lens (like the TCl NXTPAPER 60 Ultra for example) doesn't really look better but a good camera is more useful than a clock or some gimmicky AI pet; I know the device has a camera as well, but certainly a bad one. There's already a clock on the front side. And I have enough clocks in my appartment and always carry a watch on my wrist when I leave the house. So I don't need a LCD clock on the back side.
Besides it's only Android 14. The support for Android 13 just dropped, 14 will be next. If BigMe sells this for around 100 $ or € then Android 14 would be ok. But they want much more.
I once bought a 7" BigMe device (B7) via Amazon for around 260 Euro on sale. It had a dead pixel. I asked BigMe what they would do about this. Well, they told me eloquently shit happens and that's just the way it is. The customer support was really bad so I returned the device via Amazon without problems.
Using a custom launcher and adb on the B7 was a nightmare, the camera was really rubbish; I couldn't even make a decent picture of some text on paper with it. All in all I have a rather bad experience with BigMe.
