Not exactly. The way this phone is being marketed is very strange - this phone is designed as an "add-on phone", it can only be used as an add-on to an existing line.
As a standalone phone $350 isn't too bad, but asking people to pay $350 in addition to whatever they want to pay for their "main" phone is a little much.
They're in Apple Watch territory with this pricing and I don't think they have the ecosystem to demand that kind of price.
