We’ve got some pretty exciting news to share, Rebels I’m thrilled to announce that we’re joining the Razer family! They’re rebels like us, they speak from the heart, and they share our need to push boundaries. Nextbit will operate as an independent division inside Razer, focused on unique mobile design and experiences. To put it simply, we’ll be doing exactly what we’ve been doing all along, only bigger and better. If you’re curious what this means for Robin, don’t worry. While we have stopped selling Robin and all accessories through our official channels, we are still dedicated to supporting all of you. We will continue to fulfill warranties for 6 more months. And as promised, we will continue to provide software updates and security patches through February 2018.   More than anything we want to preserve the community we’ve built on our forums and our social streams, we’re really proud of what we’ve accomplished together. I want to thank all of you for your support. We would not be the company we are today without our backers, our supporters and our community -- our band of Rebels. We love you guys. Sincerely,Tom Moss

What's exciting there is the innovative minds of both companies will surely have something in store for us. Razer Nextbit phone? Razer Nextbit tablets? Razer Nextbit gaming PCs? Please make it happen!
