Nice device don't get me wrong but to call that "truly innovative" is a stretch.

Fingerprint Scanner: meh IMO- same thing was innovative on laptops 4 years ago and that died pretty quickly.

64 bit hardware: Sounds great but questionable how much of an impact it actually has due to it really only being neccessary with >4MB of RAM. http://www.itproportal.com/2013/09/1...ormance-boost/

720p 120 FPS Camera: Note 3 and S4 also have this capability, don't think it is huge innovation.

Burst Mode: Not innovative at all, Blackberry already has this feature.

Of that list the only really innovative thing is the 64 bit hardware, and TBH I am not sure the phone has enough RAM for that to really matter.

Edit: Actually how they implemented the fingerprint scanner was pretty slick so I will give them that too. Still more incremental then innovative overall though.
