Kellen August 18, 2021 14

Long time readers of the site will know the name Saygus. The company who made a big splash at CES 2015 with a phone that promised the world, only to lie and delay the device for years without ever shipping it, was a punching bag around these parts as we...

Kellen November 7, 2017 30

As much as I would love to never talk about Saygus and the V2 phone again (that's probably a lie - talking about disasters is fun), we can't quit until we see this thing through. And guess what? After supposedly clearing the FCC a couple of months back, the...

The Saygus V2…You Already Asked for a Refund, Right?

Kellen January 19, 2016 75

The Saygus V2 or V-Squared is back in the news this week, unfortunately. I don't really have much to say about it, other than we met with them at CES and came away shaking our heads at the disaster that they have become since announcing their phone at last...
