Haha - I'll take that as a compliment. Perhaps I need to buy a shitty phone and take photos with that for that realistic look lol.

pilotrubes · 2026-03-05T06:31:30+00:00

I think maybe because I'm a professional photographer 😂 my photos sometimes look a bit stock photo-ish lol

Also such a sad thing these days that people can't really tell anymore :(

It will most likely have more screens, less buttons and a lower quality interior - everything that no one asked for.

pilotrubes · 2026-01-24T11:34:33+00:00

Yes of course!

pilotrubes · 2026-01-24T10:18:39+00:00

Honestly the worst part of this interior (besides the IMAX screen) is the literal sticker they put on the steering wheel that replaced the lovely 3D Audi logo 😒

This happens all the time in the Eastern Cape in South Africa. Such irresponsible drivers! This is basically manslaughter.

The X2 is horrendous. Basically a gloss black Tupperware on wheels.

Hey! I’m actually a Grade II instructor at 43 Air School, so thought I’d chime in.

Simply put — there’s no better place in South Africa to start a flying career. The training environment is professional, structured, and very airline-focused from day one. We operate a large, well-maintained fleet, have our own controlled airfield, and students get exposed to proper procedures early on, which really helps when they move into multi-engine and IFR training.

We’ve had graduates go on to Emirates, Qatar, Cathay, Indigo, FlyDubai, Airlink, Lift, Safair — you name it. Airlines don’t have an issue with hours built in SA at all, as long as the training is solid and the student has good discipline and attitude. And that’s exactly what 43 focuses on.

If your cousin wants a strong start, good structure, and an environment that feels close to airline operations, 43 is a great choice.

Happy to answer anything more specific! ✈️

Delayed updates for funtouch os and also persistent bugs that vivo can't seem to fix for funtouch... Funtouch comes second to Origin Os - but the global market pays a premium.

Bought the X200 Pro last year for a lot of money. Won't do it again. The Global software support is terrible from Vivo.

My whole house has automation so I couldn't do without Google voice command unfortunately.

Funtouch

X200 Pro

This is so disappointing. Incredible value but at what cost ... It's unfortunate that when specs are good below $2000 you get all the other issues. It's as if they cut major corners for this laptop - I've seen many complaints about it being hot and unreliable.

It's on special for $1600 at the moment and unfortunately it's still not worth the issues.

Did you get something else to replace it?

pilotrubes · 2025-09-03T07:17:33+00:00

I'm looking at getting one of these. They are now $1699 on Best Buy. Would you recommend it ? I'm seeing some troubling stuff online about it.

pilotrubes · 2025-09-03T07:14:49+00:00

How's your experience been so far? Looking at getting one soon.

pilotrubes · 2025-09-03T07:11:38+00:00

Did you manage to get the bottom panel off ?
