According to DCR at least, its a language thing This is because the phonetic pronunciation combo of both ‘Fenix’ and ‘4’ together in Mandarin is basically translated as “fast rise to quick death” – not exactly the branding you want to aim for. |

Fenix 4 - it was something to do with the Mandarin pronunciation of Fenix 4, it was either rude, or something that signified bad luck, can't remember the precise reason, but definitely about how it sounded in Mandarin. Strange what obscure facts are stored away in your memory..... |
