The Alicorn Crystal++ is a smartphone developed by AlicornSystems, released on 15 March 2017. It is the latest in the Alicorn Crystal line of smartphones running the Android-based PegasOS operating system.
Overview
The Crystal++ was designed with usability in mind. According to lead designer TreLaBleep:
"You should be able to just take one look at this thing and go, 'I know how to use this.' Everything about it is intended to act as an extension of the user rather than being its own thing they have to fight with. We don't lock our bootloaders because we embrace creativity and innovation within our community of Alicorn owners, and we want this phone, as well as all of ours down the line, to act as a medium for communication that strikes a balance between being unique and familiar."1
