    We've just taken a first look at Turing's new phone, the Appassionato. But should you even trust this company anymore?

      MrMobile [Michael Fisher] LOL, they're partnered with TCL this time to help distribution...and have also signed a $1 billion deal with Potevio to secure at least 750,000 sales in China. No vaporware this year(...hopefully). XD

    with the name of Sir ALAN, i kinda expected someone sounded like Jarvis when i call.

  • @shortstuff780
    @shortstuff780 Před 7 lety +60

    So sad, the last Turing phone looked so nice and sounded brilliant, yet never was released, or if it was nobody heard of it. 2 years ago I was tempted in actually getting it . But never saw it on the companies website that they were selling it..
    Hopefully the company will get its act together because they have interesting ideas for sure

    • @shinthemouth2663
      @shinthemouth2663 Před 7 lety +4

      yeh its a Shame, the design of the original turing was amazing!, I don't like this new one at all compared to the original

    • @rvshvsh
      @rvshvsh Před 7 lety

      Akshay Verma Man, I don't even think if this will be available in India! I too was tempted about the last phone but it resulted in a bummer! I hope this comes tho.

    • @waynepeters5544
      @waynepeters5544 Před 6 lety

      The main reason most were interested in the original Turing Phone was not its looks, or design, but the push to be a secure device. Privacy and security are what I want!! There's a high possibility that the Turing Phone was sabotaged by those who want open networks... Do you understand the benefits of an open, insecure network??

  • @niketan_rai
    @niketan_rai Před 7 lety +72

    Integrating Sir Alan with Google Assistant is a very smart idea. My only complain is that at a price point of 999$ i would i want the lastest processor i.e 835 and not 821

  • @piratesmvp
    @piratesmvp Před 7 lety

    This is quite innovative. The biggest challenge in my mind is their ability to handle the volume of Sir Alan calls once the phone is released. For this service to work, the calls will need to be answered immediately. Any amount of on-hold time will be unacceptable since people are now used to immediate info via Google Assistant, Siri, etc.

    This is definately an interesting phone, but I can't see a lot of people buying it. Then again, Vertu did just go out of buisness so that luxury phone market needs someone to fill their niche....could be this?

  • @MattWard89
    @MattWard89 Před 7 lety

    I'm sure I would rarelyyyy use that sir allen assistant but that is pretty dang cool. Much slower for just simple tasks like asking for the score of a football game but having it make reservations and stuff. That's cool. Definitely a phone for the wealthy that get dinner reservations to nice places and travel all the time. They are probably the guy/girl that carries two phones and might honestly only use this phone for sir allen. Pretty cool but not nearly enough to convert any considerable amount of people.

  • @Jhihmoac
    @Jhihmoac Před 7 lety

    I've heard of this handset... In the art & music circuit, it's called "The Promoter's or Art Critic's Phone" because of the artsy-geared "Sir Al" services... If you're deeply entrenched in the Arts, this is THE handset to have...Whereas the TAG Meridiist and the Vertu are more for status, the Turing is definitely for work and productivity related commerce in the aforementioned fields...

    This phone looks absolutely amazing, sadly judging from the shine on the back I don't think it would be possible to custom print designs on the back which would be epic. Definitely going to put some savings to this or Turing's newest phone if this line survives.

      IceWolve That's true, but not at this price point. There are phones that have good amount s of ram and rom, that only cost in the 4 to 6 hundred dollars price range and lower. But they exchange other features, such as chipsets newness or elsewhere.
