- UBook Delay Update #Update17 – KICKSTARTER
Dear Backers,
We are so sorry to inform you the challenges we confront with the production time, it was the darkest time we might go through.
Last week we spent an inspection tour to factory, as we know the fact that the first and second batch of UBook were going to be sent out last week. However it`s found that there are issues after the strict ageing test in 100 devices randomly.
Step1: Put them in -20°for 24 hours then back to normal in 2 hours, later 60°high temperature 24 hours testing then back to normal in 2 hours.
Step2: After making sure all the function could work well, with 24 hours music&video playing during charging.
The test will be ok only if all the randomly selected device could pass. Unfortunately, two of them showed gaps around the edge of screen, any little screen trouble will harm user experience would be intolerable.
We can`t take the chance on the screen which may cause lower experience after half year using. Right there we decided to take another few days to take better solution to reshape and refurbish the case to limit the possible bending to 0.5mm, rebuild every single UBook by Professional-grade software with dispensing machine until bringing the blueprint precisely back to reality.
The previous H3 stylus will be upgraded as not only a gift but also a rewarding to everyone with powerful H5 stylus, which will supports 2048 pressure level, the screen will react precisely in the are a of its touch without ever having to touch your screen twice.
Surely there are several delay happened before, various setbacks and problems delayed production. The fact is no matter how awful the situation would be, the core value inside our campaign is always to bring cool stuff to every backers with high-quality and fancy exterior, it`s unchangeable.
The fresh UBook will arrive at our company next week. After being tested by our product team and system built, the shipment would start soon.
Much appreciate your continuous support which brings us to the stage to have a chance we would cherish forever to bring better device to each one, just like what we reiterate: For lover & by lover. The determination are always there to go through the tough days for all of us.
Thank you
Best,
CHUWI Team
無作為に抽出したデバイス100台でStep1「24時間、-20度の環境に2時間入れた後に室温で放置。その後60度の高温で24時間テストを行った後2時間冷却。最後に2時間室温で放置」する。Step2「充電中に24時間音楽&ビデオ再生で全ての機能が上手く動作する事を確認」といった動作確認を行った所、スクリーンの端で隙間が発生してしまい、ディスプレイ及びタッチパネルに動作に支障をきたす可能性があったとの事。
恐らく通常ではまずありえない「低温(-20度)、高温(60度)からの冷却」となってしまったため、何台かディスプレイ回りに変形してしまったものかと思われます。
しかしCHUWIは「質が高く、上品な外観を持つ製品を届ける事」を目標としているため、UBookの設計図を正確に再現する為に金型のケースを作り直した事により、やや生産に遅れが発生してしまったようです。
新しいUBookは6月11日ごろ到着し、テストを行った後に出荷を開始する予定
金型を作り直した新しいUBookは6月11日ごろ到着し、テストを行った後に出荷を開始する予定との事。
想像以上に過酷な動作テストを行っていることが明らかになり、どこぞのTopjoyに爪の垢を煎じて飲ませたくなる気分ですね。
