iRist? Classy name.

Have to admit I had a chuckle... From a western PoV, yes it sounds corny...
We often see product names from vendors in China & other Asian countries that seem comical, how it comes across in a local market can be another matter though.

and from the last image, one could conclude that they are going to release 2 phones: probably one more premium

However the allusion to 2 phones, and the appearance of Jollas sandwiched between plastic covers masquerading as Intex devices may mean that they've come to an agreement where Intex will sell off the remaining devices for peanuts, whilst releasing a slightly better specced device (I wouldn't hope for too much).
It would probably make sense for both companies - certainly for Jolla - as if they don't get rid of them soon they'll need to give them away. Indeed they may have already written them off and they're the sweetener that secured a deal.

Am I missing something? The pictures of this "new" Jolla are literally identical to the existing model 
Also, what is the point of Jolla releasing a phone with only 1GB of RAM? Drives me crazy that my apps are constantly getting silently shut down.

All times are GMT. The time now is 16:03.
But in his article he did -oddly- seem to suggest, that the device being demoed in Intex's booth is "The real McCoy"...
Maybe he knows all the detail but is under a gag order, or maybe he doesn't know all the detail & those who've claimed to so far are full of it, or vice-versa, who knows.
N.B.
According to that article; all that Intex purportedly said, is that the real device is more premium...
So maybe the specs floating about are still correct, but the design/aesthetic/build-quality of the real device, is "more premium" than what's being demoed.
I hope Intex were referring to better core specs (or at least better pricing for the specs currently touted), but we'll have to W&S.
