But yeah, it's still sucks that, as the contrary of whats pre-orders are and what was written, regular orders can have this phone before pre-orders.

Remember also that the Pro¹ is not crowdfunded (I know some will say it is almost the same due to the delays since payments, but well, it still is not a crowdfunded project), meaning F(x)tec had investors. I am not saying those investors included retailers, but that' is a possibility, especially as Clove seems to be UK-based. Or they could just be pre-orderers or IGG backers too. In both cases, it wouldn't be shocking that they get devices at the same time as pre-orderers.
What increases the feeling of being fooled is the slow production followed by long export process. I don't think anyone would have seen a big issue if individual preorders had been fulfilled in a few weeks as initially planned (meaning many more units per week, and shorter duration between those in one batch, those in another one, and retailers). There still is no general availability, those retailers had very limited stocks, so we can't really jump conclusions that F(x)tec skipped pre-orderers to please stockists.

This review really hurts, I hope Chen and team took this feedback seriously. Some of the things can't be fixed like curved screen but software faults? Did they get a faulty unit?

I haven't read the full review yet, but the author claims "Personally, I’m much faster using Gboard". Assuming speed is the only, or even the main parameter to assess a keyboard is a mistake. I know the same author also says in other sentences that the hardware keyboard allows shortcuts and frees some screen estate, but still, his previous comment says a lot. Speed never was the issue with touch keyboards, especially when used with swype.

I'm pretty much in the same boat as you Kabouik. The review is flawed in quite a few places.
My first spot was "....the Nokia E97....." didn't exist. He's more than likely talking about the N97.
As for his criticism of the screen and comparison with Samsung Galaxies, I've seen countless Samsungs with shattered screens either in use or being dropped off for replacement. As for the keyboard, he only used it for a week compared to poking away on an iPhone or Samsung for years.
