If it where me i would have never gone to qualcom in the first place.

Would have gone for another company even if it isnt exactlly on equell footing as the top of the line snapdragon... wonder why there is so little competion in this part of the market?

Well the 825 was just the newest flagship cpu they could get when they designed the phone.
Now they can't just take the 845 that would require them to redesign the whole PCB'n stuff. I also am doubting they can even get a 845. This is mostly reserved for bigger players.
In the end they had not much choice. the 625 was the one CPU they could get from their factory with all on it they needed.
The PCB that was designed for the 825 for them is not even their IP, so they can't even get the 825 somewhere else. It is all very complicated, and as a small player you are basically f**ked...

lol what a mess they did. I am actually wondering why XDA didn't suggest going for 845 instead? Or perhaps something of the 7xx series.

662 for 700$ is a scam lol.

The real problem is, why did they use the SD835 from the original Pro1 in the first place?

The Pro1-X by F(x)tec and XDA Developers was supposed to arrive next month and with a Snapdragon 835 SoC. However, supply problems have pushed the device's estimated delivery date to August 2021 and forced F(x)tec to use the Snapdragon 662, instead.
