We’re reaching out today to provide another quick progress update on Passport Prime and Passport Core.
Passport Prime
We now have all mechanical components released from customs and in place at our U.S factory, but we are still awaiting some packaging materials to complete our inventory. These final items are due within the next two weeks.
Our team is at the factory this week to begin the manufacturing setup process, and we expect to begin assembling and shipping Early Access orders three weeks from today.
Here are some images of the demo devices and packaging we brought to the conference in Vegas. Safe to say that the 20,000 people in attendance were incredibly excited to get to test out Passport Prime and see the new Stealth colorway of Passport Core.
Passport Core
As with Passport Prime, we now have all Passport Core mechanical components at our U.S. factory and have begun the manufacturing process. Unfortunately, during initial builds, one internal part was found to be manufactured slightly out of tolerance, causing a minor issue during assembly that prevented the devices from passing quality assurance tests.
This part is being re-manufactured and expedited to us as we speak. We expect these new items to arrive in 2–3 weeks, allowing us to resume assembly and begin shipping 3–4 weeks from today.
We plan to share another update from the factory in the coming weeks. In the meantime, if you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team via the contact form on our website.
