Function X - The first fully blockchain-powered phone (Blok on Blok)

[TopTort777]

The design is weird. Looks more like a “Cat” mobile. Mobile for builders, army or someone, whos workis connected with dust/dirt/etc.

On a blockchain meeting, when all are having latest models of Samsung or iPhone, I will feel ashamed to show my function x mobile

While talk about Blok on Blok, you can switch easily between the traditional android mode and the blockcahin  mode as well. It can be moved as you need. Moreover, BOB has own transmission protocol network and own OS which is F(x) FXTP and F(x) OS thats blockchain-compatibile.

Is that what the switch at the top left are for? To move from traditional android to blockchain mode and vice versa?

My first impression was actually like one of those old devices used for playing some games.

To use the blockchain mode for sending sms or make calls you need an internet?
And do we know how much does it cost to send sms or make a call in FX coin?

Blockchain mode connected by the nodes, when you are at the blockchain mode that means you dont need your sim card provider works.
for the utilize fx token amount will be announce soon.

Function X BoB is quite a cool concept but it is a big challenge on how can they compete with existing mobile phone market. Yes its a blockchain phone of course and it will be an another leap to f it catches the consumers appetite of using a blockchain phone, the design is nice reminds me of the Caterpillar phones if your familiar.

Can Function X phones store other tokens? Isn't this already based on the blockchain so I want to know if anyone uses it here, or isn't it on the mobile market yet?

It shall be store another tokens

Function x mobile phone is very weird in design and looks, not so attractive looking to me and i am sure its same for many as well, kinda look lot like a military grade mobile phones, any ways just try to improve the design because many don't like ugly mobile phones

BOB Hardware Design Is Open Source
Upon the release of BOB, all of its hardware design rendering files will be made available for more hands-on users to be able to download, modify and 3D print the parts to make their own BOB modifications. We hope to see a thriving BOB MOD community where BOB MOD enthusiasts will create new parts to exchange, trade or even sell their design creations.

the mechanism to switch from traditional mode into the blockchain mode, you can do it by swipe on the phone-screen. by swipe-click it could change easily into blockchain mode.

BlokOnBlok (BOB for short) will be the world’s first decentralized smartphone, which includes your calls, file storage, messages and so on. The production of BOB is on schedule. PundiX is now finalizing the product specs and moving forward to the first test production of BOB.

It is just customize design. But moving forward, Pundi X will be working with smartphone manufacturers and telecom companies to create more blockchain phones, and all our blockchain phones will be connected to the FX mainnet.

Retro-Futuristic Sci-fi Design
The design philosophy behind BOB is inspired from the sci-fi films and comics from the 80s and 90s. XPhone takes the classic retro-ness design which you love and combine it with the avant-garde future tech to create a phone that is familiar, cutting edge and uniquely yours at the same time.

For XPhone-Android-OS will be announced soon.

while with the f(x) OS powering BOB, it is the world's first true blockchain phone that is secure and decentralized to its core. The f(x) OS allows you to tap into the Function X ecosystem that is built entirely on the blockchain. Each BOB functions like a node, supporting the Function X blockchain. Unlike traditional phones, you will no longer require a centralized service provider to call, message, browse the internet or access app services.

How BOB works for sending a message without the internet connection? anyone can explain to me this case? I'm still blurry the decentralized phone

The node which receives the message or data will verify based on the signoff by A's private key, after verification, the message will be saved on the Function X Blockchain. The nodes connected to B's BoB (XPhone) will constantly filter the data or message which belongs to B. When received, the nodes will deliver it to B. Once B’s device decrypts, B can review the message.

Could you describe more of this. Using internet on a mobile will be possible without wi-fi or mobile data?
