Akis Evangelidis, co-founder and head of marketing explained the invite system. The company will first offer invites to community members and invites to members who do not pre-order the device will be given to others.
He added that the invite system has been put in place as the phone (1) will have a limited supply, unlike phones from other companies that are built in millions.
Carl Pei, the chief executive officer added that the company decided to use an invite system to avoid using a flash sale model. He added that “some people have literally been waiting for a year.”
The company has not revealed how it plans on identifying the initial users to share the invites.
