ES07DCA (Spectrum 280Hz glossy) and ES07D01 (Spectrum 144Hz)
At this point, we do not have confirmed information yet for ES07DCA and ES07D01.
This concludes the recap! Drop your comment below and let us know what you think.
Any idea when we’ll get our shiny monitors? I’m currently borrowing a monitor off of someone as I bought a monitor while waiting for my monitor and that has broken and to be honest, I’m beginning to get a bit fed up with monitors.
Any idea when we can expect updates on ES07DCA? Original order stated delivery in December, but that seems implausible now.
Even if it’s not confirmed, some vague idea will help. I assume the glossy process won’t take as the 4k spectrum did, but I still don’t know whether to think 1 more month or 6
Yes that is correct. It will not make it for December anymore.
Since we have done similar development for ES07D03 > ES07DC9, from what I heard is that the process will be much faster. Although I haven’t got any confirmation yet on this, so I can’t say anything more.
Production will be enough to cover all orders currently on the backlog and then some.
I think in another post they mentioned that December shipping doesn’t seem likely. I kind of agree because they show us the production is happening I. December, then they most likely are going to do a quality check and if that comes out well then they ship out the ones but it has to go through customs which takes a lot of time and then deliver to the warehouses in respective countries and then ship out from there. So I say January the most
If things go fast, either this week or early next week, then shipping will still be possible this month.
However, as @syed-s said, there are other factors such as customs, unloading, then delivery to warehouses. All of these processes will take time. Personally, I would stick with January as well.
Yes, hence the question/request for new info. To repeat my self: It was stated that the ES07DCA production will start after the mass production of ES07D02.
2.5 years since preorder, 300 days since PAYMENT, so you must see that “no update” is not good enough.
So I get an email at the start of the year to pay and I’ll get my screen. It’s the end of the year and I don’t have it. Is the ES07D02 going to ship ever?
At this moment we don’t have an update for ES07DCA. While it was promised that ES07DCA update was to come after ES07D02’s mass production, we have yet to hear any news/developments coming from our partner.
Sorry that you are still waiting for your unit. Yes ES07D02 will eventually ship. We have units already in mass production.
On 20.01. 2022 Eve wrote me an E-Mail:
“Hi Tobias, we’re getting your order ready to be shipped. We will notify you when it has been sent.”
That was the moment I completed the payment.
I am with EVE (now Dough) since we build the first “V” with all the lows and the the high at the End.
I really thought that prcesses are questioned and optimized (clearer, faster).
From my point of view I see no increasing in the way the business works.
If I wouldn´t be so a hard Fanboy I would have left this Community years ago…
(In the “First 500 EVE-V” on Telegramm there are 36 People left)
We will find out what “eventually” means at the End.
