There will be no Umi OS only stock android also as unofficial Lineage OS for some devices.

I would prefer LineageOS.
I've had very good experiences so far.
(not with UMIDIGI devices, but with Samsung)
Unfortunately, UMIDIGI devices are not very common and therefore nobody seems to bother creating a working LineageOS version.

I would be very grateful if someone created LineageOS or crDroid for the UMIDIGI Z Pro.

Totaly agree on this one. Stock Android is a way forward, but imagine what we could do with open sources?

Still kind of keen about this device. Sadly will be a long time until i can get my hands on one and start fiddeling around. Maybe they dare to give out a few some to review-people or coders?

I just received the specifications via newsletter.

Camera
Main: 16MP (F2.0)+8MP,Samsung sensor, autofocus (PDAF), Dual LED flash, 4K video recording
Front: 16MP+8MP with F2.0 aperture, Sony sensor, video recording 1080p

That's too inaccurate for me. I would like to know which sensor is used (the exact type).
I would also like to have more information about the AI Processing Unit.
What functions does it have, what is improved by it, was it developed by UMIDIGI itself, ...

How about the screens ?
I find the screen on my old Z are pretty useless in the summer time with sun ...

In regards to the google search bar on home screen.
Settings, apps, (all apps), google app, disable.
Reboot phone and search bar will be gone.

I got a mail with the specs today.
Looking good, and nice preorder offer.
I was hoping for the Z2 to be a little smaller too, i am not getting to terms with the large phones that i feel ( pardon my french ) are too gay
But it is what it is, and as it have been my whole life i am always a little different than the other kids :-)

I love the sturdy cases of the UMIDIGI devices
and do not understand why many manufacturers use glass on both sides.
The larger a display is, the more susceptible it is to damage.

Is the Z2 / Z2 Pro equipped with Gorilla Glass?

I would be glad if there were more devices like the LG G7 ThinQ.
It is shockproof according to MIL-STD-810G and water and dust protected to IP68.
