          No, it’s not a phone. That’s the “Cooler Master Cryo Phone Cooler”. It’s a phone cooler that attaches to the back of your phone to provide additional cooling while gaming and what not. So when you said

          They wouldn’t work on either(phone or tablet) because that’s not the type of products they make.

          Not really true, Cooler Master had already made a cooler for phones. It’s not much of a stretch to say they might release another product in the phone category.

            No, it is very true. Building a glorified clip-on fan is not the same thing as making a phone.

                I mean I feel like that’s pretty clearly what you were insinuating, but if not then I’m not sure what YOUR point is.

                The point is not only that phones don’t have cooling systems (outside of niche devices like RedMagic and ROG) but that CM has no experience with that sort of thing, so its unlikely to be a phone because they would not need CM’s investment for that.

                  If Framework made a modular phone then CM could make a modular similar to the one I linked that could attach to the FW phone. Or the phone wouldn’t involve CM at all and they’re working on a different product altogether.

                  What do you think the next Framework/Cooler Master collaboration is?
