  • New FIG Kosher Phone

Yes. It is a modified version of the FIG as far as I've been told. But the seller has told me it's not under FIG's brand, but instead a QIN F30 branding, and then they will do the filtering for those that want/need it. I will do some testing once they send me an unit and will provide my thoughts as always.

    Flippy Exactly what jbriones said -- Also jbriones i'm trying to get a hold of you!! I saw your post on the subreddit...can we DM somehow??

      looking4aphone Yes. You can DM me on reddit or email me. I don't know if there is a message function on this forum, but you can also use that. You can find my email on my YouTube page 🙂

          sdmde No idea yet. They will be sharing more details with me once they send it. Sorry for the scant details, I'll share more when I have more to share 🙂

              jbriones95 Got it. Nice to meet you here Jose! What I want to know is will the product in question have BETTER network compatibility than the FIG? Because the Fig is also being marketed as "US Bands" but in actuality runs into a lot of issues. In short: Hardware or software? And will it be approved by any US carriers?

                  BTW the original device of the fig phone, "Xiaomi qin f21 pro" has a product update. The Xiaomi qin f22 pro which is supposedly much better.

                    Flippy As far as I've been told, these are hardware modifications that have improved over the FIG. I'll have to test myself as companies just say stuff nowadays without truly proving their methods. I'll keep everyone posted for sure 🙂

                      jbriones95 Would love to get pictures of the phone itself, as well as know whether it includes the play store? Also what is the estimated cost as well as carrier compatibility?

                          Apps4Flip-Admin Here are some pictures: [Login to see the link]. Verizon and T-mobile work without issues VoWiFi included. AT&T does as well, but at some point in time, it gets blocked sadly. Still trying to figure a workaround 🙂

                          Edit: No Playstore on the OG device, but there will be an option for play store and apk installation I've been told.

                              lgexalter1 Yes. I could edit the IMEI, but I am trying to not resort to that so I can recommend it to AT&T users who may be less technical 🙂

                                  jbriones95 Great. Did you try locations with weak service? On the original f21 pro, service was significantly worse than other handsets in poor service areas..
