| EDIT: Given the presence Blloc has established online, it's likely that this is a real project. My apologies to adhambadr and the rest of the team. ------------------- I noticed this as well. The images of the device are entirely inconsistent with one another [0]. * Rendering effects are visible in some of the images * The front is displayed inconsistently. In some renders, a speaker is shown. In others, it is absent. * The front is shown as having a black bezel at the top in some images and on the bottom in others. * The radius of the rounded corners fluctuates between top and bottom and from image to image * On the back, the fingerprint reader, camera lens, and LED may or may not be present from image to image * Antenna cut outs are depicted as either horizontal or vertical * The side buttons do not appear congruent * The information on the back is inconsistent (sometimes device info, sometimes Blloc) * The camera style fluctuates from image to image (sometimes single lens, sometimes dual lens) On the flip side, the domain has been registered since 2016 [1] and the project has been referenced on other sites [2][3] (using some of the same rendered images). The Instagram [4] has had posts since 2017, but, again, most appear to be renders.

pictures are a mix of renders and post edited photos, the models changed over time as we tested / verified components
