It's such a weird marketing pitch though...

Can Communicator be used as my primary phone? Yes! Absolutely. Communicator is a fully standalone smartphone that runs Android 16, with all the apps, 5G connectivity and Wi-fi. We think many people will use this as their primary phone while others will use it as a complement to a flagship iPhone, Galaxy, Pixel, etc.

Maybe a way for them to be able to say one day: "yes, it's not selling in big numbers, but we aren't competing against the others anyway, ours is a second phone, so it's not a failure!" I mean, I don't even know if that makes sense, but it's the only spin I can give to it.
