Fig Flip Mini VS. Wonder Flip phone

So, the question is obvious:
Which one should I get? And why?

I just got the Fig Flip Mini today, but I could’ve gone with the Wonder for $379 plus $25 tax (?!?) at WayMore Wireless. I checked out the Wonder—it seems like a solid phone—but the Fig’s camera is noticeably better.

The Wonder has an SD card slot, which is nice, but it lacks an outer screen. That got me wondering: what does the Wonder really add? If the creator is trying to compete with Fig, why not introduce something more innovative to give people a real reason to choose it?

The apps are basically the same, the size is nearly identical, and quality? Time will tell. Updates? Both devices get them. The only real reason I’d consider the Wonder is that it doesn’t have a locked download agent, and I think I could reverse-engineer it—but let’s be honest, that’s not a legitimate reason to buy a phone.

So that got me wondering, which one should I have bought? And why should I choose one over the other?

What do you think? Am I right or wrong here?

I have the fig ll x (Ave it’s definitely better then the fig mini) I found my experience with the fig to be great but once I got the wonder I had an extremely hard time switching back to the point where I just ditched my fig… Also I think you made a mistake about the price on the wonder

3

How many mp is the camera on the fig? Give the wonderphone time its still in beta

4

I found the wonder camera to kick the fig flip ll X the only thing that’s not great is the focusing takes some time but they are fixing these type of issues the developer told me he didn’t even start working on the camera app is the stock Android one

5

Does the D-Pad navigation work well? Can you use the phone without using the touchscreen at all?

Yes that was one of his main points that he was trying to do the only thing that dpad does not fully work on is waze

Thanks, but can you give me a reason?
And why is the fig mini worse then the x?

No the fig has a lot of apps that don’t fully work with d pad…

I personally oversee a phone store in Lakewood and there were a few people that had issues with the fig mini being slow or crashing/freezing up… So they came to us to buy the fig ll X which bh they didn’t run into any issues (besides done service issues that’s only because of a non valid IMEI which wonder took care of)

I don’t care…
So now technically there’s no diff - right?
Just verifying…
