That's setting the bar pretty low. I have Apple's leather case on my phone and it does not exactly exude quality or luxury. Now a Radius that smelled like leather, felt like leather...

My Apple leather case smells and feels like real leather ... pretty much the same leather as my Doc Martens ... where did you buy yours?

The real case is definitely leather.

Meh. I bought 2 of those too. Live a little! :p $45 each on MLK day slam dunked me.;)

I love my Radius (before it went wonky and is now being fixed) but honestly, the only way I would be interested in a new Radius if the new announcement is for a dual 18650 150w+ version or a 40w tube "Radius". I am in a vaping budget freeze period anyways.:mad:

I keep telling myself I'm in a "vaping budget freeze" as well (least til the next shiny new thingy comes out) but even a few days of self control is a small win at times. I'll give it a few more days and hope it isn't a " non event" as some have postulated.

People might be a lot happier if they knew if it was an upgrade (including colors), mod, atty, or accessory. If it's not something we are interested in, there is no point to investing more time into it.
Especially when people have just recently made ProVape purchases. No one likes being that guy who would've waited to spend their money had they been informed something new was in the works.
This doesn't affect me since I'm so not impressed with the Radius & spend everyday telling myself to sell it.

It has more merit coming from ProVape. :)
Fun or not I personally think ProVape forgot how important it is for many to get it straight from the source. Games are cool 'n all that but at the end of the day they get old quick & many of us aren't in our 20's where we've got nothing better to do but sit & play all day.

I should have shopped around for an aftermarket one but I was there getting the phone so I impulse bought.

I'm willing to bet a Mac update will never happen... It's likely a great deal of work to make it compatible, and frankly it's a big step to have one ecosystem supported.... So much complaining from Apple users on this. Sheesh! (I'm not calling you out here. There's just been a lot of complaining).

PC's are so popular and CHEAP. Get a used one off eBay for like nothing if you want. Man Oh man - lol. Go to a buddies house. Work? Your next door neighbor? Almost anywhere in the world?

They'd also have to keep making two versions of all the updates if they support Mac. And Mac's are a small % of overall home computers. You should also be used to not being supported by more companies than just Provape.

I cannot dislike this enough. I'd give your post a few high 5's if this were the yr 2005 & you could count on one had how many people used Macs. It's 2016 so I'm not going to tell someone they need to buy a Win machine for 3 min updates. And why should I have to leave my house to bother someone to use their computer.

For as much as these mods cause, there's just no excuse big enough {IMO} to justify no Mac support!!!

I buy all my cases on Amazon for like $8 or less but the day I bought my iPhone 6S Plus I dropped $50 on this one. Was too scared to come home without a case. Between this phone & my Note 5, I dont know which one is slipperier. They slide right out the hand like wet glass.

.....The Stealth Radius.....

Meh.

....Maybe The Ti Stealth Radius also....

Double meh. :p

I hope that's it though.....

Crazy to see people putting off purchases and not opening Radius shipments based on anticipation of a potentially superior version of a new product just released 2-3 months ago...... :)

Dislike, sorry. You weren't able to upgrade the P2.5 at all. You were able to upgrade the P3, but you had to find an authorized dealer (WITH a programmer), and often times that's a significant drive, and if you couldn't find one, you had to send it in to ProVape. You can upgrade the Radius on any Windows computer. You have the nerve to say "there's just no excuse"?? Some people are never satisfied. Take it to your authorized dealer, along with your P3.

I have a Kickstarter going, I'm fine.
