No removable battery & no headphone jack? That's a helluva downgrade IMHO. I was just saving up for the original, too. That's gonna be a no buy from me. I'll keep an eye out in case they wise up in the future, but this is a no-go.

Even worse, apparently no alt DP display out anymore, which is a killer feature for Linux phones.

The FLX1 did not have DP alt mode either, unless I am totally mistaken. All external display concepts for the FLX1 were/are to require sth like DisplayLink. So all that's lost are file transfer speeds over USB.

Thirded. Like GD, the original looked great. What are they thinking?

From what I could gather, they wanted to make more of the original FLX1, but could not get the a manufacturer to do that. I am actually not too unhappy with this one, the orginal FLX1 was too big and heavy for my liking.
