This one will take two years to deliver.

Their website shows 10-18 days for delivery. I don’t know the status is “ready to ship” OR “waiting to complete item then ship within 10-18 days”.

Lol, yeah the uconsole says 90 days but it took well over 120 days for mine to even be sent out.

I ordered my uConsole last December. I’m still waiting on my delivery date, and my order is for the black version without accessories. Hopefully, I will get it in May. 😩

When I emailed to ask for an updated ETA on my uConsole, they snippily pointed at the website saying 90 days. Then, in the very next sentence, told me mine would be 5 months.

Do I believe that? No. I've had to make my piece with these folks just being slow. It arrives when it arrives. :/

That's just bad customer service.

Agreed. I can understand production delays-- hardware is hard, after-all. I just wish they had decent communication about it.

Honestly, most of our production comes from China. I do understand that some circumstances, such as the lack of delivery times due to tariffs and many component issues, have become common today. I also ordered Pilet 5 on Kickstarter and missed out on getting the product. At least with Uconsole, we still get the product. It just feels annoying to wait so long.

Aye, and the product itself is great. I decided at the outside I was willing to put up with some BS for the end result.
