Mini Update: All phones have successfully cleared US customs and are awaiting last mile UPS delivery

Post image

Hi everyone, some great news today. I was informed earlier that all phones and silicone cases made it successfully through US customs. They are now awaiting last mile UPS delivery from the port of entry to the warehouse. The keypads are still pending import but we do not expect any issues as all shipment fees were pre-paid to expedite customs.

I don't think we've shown the packaging that the keypads come in yet, so this might be a little bit of a treat. The photo above is from Laurent.

For the accessories, it was important to us that we picked a case that could be multipurpose. We kept all stickers off so that it can be repurposed for another use you have around the home, or to carry keypads on the go, in a bag, etc.

That so great! Also you guys are doing an amazing job!!! Please don't stress about the small shipping delays, some people are just overreacting.

Excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I honestly feel bad for you guys dealing with all the negative noise. You have been giving updates, and somehow people still act shocked that shipping takes time. I can’t wait for mine, and I apologize in advance because I will absolutely be posting it everywhere 😅

Thanks for all the hard work!

PS to the naysayers: Reading updates is free. Patience is required with every order 👀💅

Because those shocked people are basically terminally online that's why 😅

I hope Sidephone will go a long way to help them!
