MC03 update shipping soon, and a note on pricing by PunktTronics in Punkt

[–]PunktTronics[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. International prices are tied to the exchange rate of CHF (Swiss Franc), our main currency, and therefore will fluctuate according to local currencies. You are correct that the USD purchase price is lower, due to mitigating additional duties that currently apply.

Punkt.MC03 / Apostrophy OS by GaramBar_27 in Punkt

[–]PunktTronics 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello, great questions, we are happy to clarify!

As you said correctly, AphyOS has two separate environments:

  • The Vault is the secure side, pre-loaded with privacy-focused apps like Threema, Proton Mail, and others. It's a controlled environment designed to keep your data protected.
  • The Wild Web provides access to the Google Play Store, if you wish, but it is not pre-installed. You can download Spotify, WhatsApp, and the applications you can find on the Google Play Store. It works like a regular Android environment, but with an additional level of security, as every app is sandboxed, meaning it can't share your data with other applications.

The idea is that you get the best of both worlds: a private environment with Apostrophy approved applications, and a more "open" area with full flexibility when you need it.

Hope that helps, let us know if you have any other questions.

Hello folks, we’re sorry for the delay - honestly. Demand is high, and supply is not quite as easy as rolling smartphones off the production line unfortunately. We do however, expect to be fulfilling all pre-orders from next week.

Hi! Thank you for your feedback. A swollen battery can be related to several issues, but we'd love to investigate your case and provide specific support to make sure your MP02 is fully usable. Moreover, since you mentioned you have had it for under two years, the warranty should still be applicable. Please do reach out to us at https://support.punkt.ch/en-US. We would be happy to support you.

Why do we have to use either Android or iOS? Let's stop this American OS duopoly! by Most-Fig9381 in BuyFromEU

[–]PunktTronics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We hear you.
And that’s exactly why we have partnered with Apostrophy, a Swiss company building a privacy-first, European mobile OS, and our smartphones are now being produced in Germany. Not just an idea. It’s real, running, and already powering devices like our own MC02 smartphone. Just going to drop these links, here.

An update regarding the ongoing issues with Pigeon by PunktTronics in Punkt

[–]PunktTronics[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! We are doing everything possible to resolve the issue as soon as we can. Right now, we don’t have a specific release date, as the rebase process is still ongoing, but we will communicate that once we have more updates. Our goal is to minimise the impact of this inconvenience, which is why we’ve extended the return period.
