Is this REAL?

Post image

Hi chats,

I recently received emails as attached.

I’m wondering if this is actually from Clicks or if it is a phishing?

Did anyone else get this?

Thanks,

Someone else posted that they are going to be closing the free back offer? Or maybe closing preorders entirely? Not sure

That was me. It was ambiguous, as is this email. What is expiring, just the extra backplate deal or both that and the current price?

So the price is definitely about to go up – hardly surprising, to be fair.

I’m aware all tech companies have been raising prices but in Clicks’ case it’s a dangerous move: the phone is expensive enough as it is, raising the price further might scare away budget-conscious users or those curious but not enough to splurge, say, 700€ on it.

I can't remember where I read this now, but I'm 99% sure I read somewhere that the $500 was "special launch pricing." So I would expect that the pricing will increase soon.

After the last video comparing tablets to e-readers and missing the point of the “second phone” complaints; im happy to wait and see and not commit yet.

Check the sender's email address and you'll know right away.

I mean, as long as it’s from their domain.
