From the comment section to this article:

Meh, who is excited about phones anymore?
Finding myself in that mode more and more often as of late.

Wow. At that price it could come with a car described as "nice condition, low miles" and they'd still make a tidy profit. Maybe throw in a Charger with the charger.

Still, it looks cool, at least the ones without the gold or titanium accents -- that crap's just tackiness for its own sake.

From the article: "...it's intended mainly for titans of industry and the jet set: people with secrets worth stealing..." Who in the real life carry just yet another iteration of iDevice, and care nothing about being submitted to mass surveillance program.

Tango is a Google project.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Tango

Further the phone has pretty good specs. Might prefer that over Note 7. There are very few 6"+ phones available in US. Hoepefully it makes it here! Another upcoming phone (6"+) that is rumoured to have a US release is the Honor Note 8

I don't know if the Note 8 supports tango.

Anyway, the Lenovo would be a nice change for me.

I believe you need specific hardware to use tango. There are a few tango based apps in the playstore and none of my phones are compatible with it.
