Why anyone would view a non-upgradeable phone slapped into a laptop case with minimal computing capability for the price would ever consider a Neo is beyond me. At that point, get a damn tablet. It’s literally the same thing but, like, designed with intent rather than a bunch of scrap pieces.

Seriously, what’s the draw? The 8 gigs of ram? The 200 gigs of storage? The major lack of ports?

Have you ever touched a Neo? It does not feel like scrap pieces. That is the magic.

A phone has great battery life and standby power management. What’s the problem with running a different OS on it if it works just fine?

Different stuff for different folks I guess. At work all files are on the cloud, I have a NAS and a computer I can remote into for development. A Neo is just perfect to make all of that mobile.

As for tablets, I’d only recommend one if you need a stylus for drawing or a smaller form factor. I think that is the market where the Neo is competing, that is where you have a point.
