Is there a future for the LattePanda 3 Delta & other LattePanda products?

  • There is a straighforward instruction how to install Ubuntu on the LattePanda Delta:

  • but DF Robot refuses to deliver the LattePanda 3 Delta to Digitec Switzerland, one of the biggest sellers of electronics components in Switzerland
  • that is why we are asking the question if there is a future for the LattePanda 3 Delta by DFRobot or if this device will be given up by the company and is only delivered directly from their shop until stock is out.
  • This procedure of DF Robot is completely not understandable to us personally, why DFRobot first increases the prize for the LattePanda 3 Delta shortly after we reviewed it and then refuses to sell it to Digitec Switzerland where we are costumers.
  • If we look how DF Robot procedes with the LattePanda 3 Delta , we wonder if the LattePanda 3 Delta has a future.
  • What we experience with the LattePanda 3 Delta reminds us to the story of the Varia Vision of Garmin.
  • Whe were interested in a further development of the Varia Vision, but supporters in the Garmin forum where not interested in this topic and adviced us to buy other products for our needs.
  • The Varia Vison by Garmin was pulled from the market later on.

On the one hand DFRobot releases new products as the LattePanda Sigma, on the other hand DFRobot refuses to deliver the LattePanda 3 Delta to Digitec Switzerland, one of the biggest sellers of electronic components in Switzerland.

We cannot follow DFRobot in what they do and how they proceed, and are strongly irritated by what they do. We have lost a lot of time because of DFRobots unclear communication, and DFRobot again and again causes troubles to us as reviewers and customers.
