Nextbit, maker of the crowdfunded Android smartphone Robin, has been acquired by Razer, the companies said in a statement Monday. 。
Though Razer plans to keep Nextbit as a separate unit within the company "focused on unique mobile design and experiences," according to Nextbit's CEO, the company stopped production for Robin and will no longer sell the handset or its accessories.。

reports it was an all-stock deal and that all of Nextbit's employees are making the move to Razer. The acquisition suggests the company, which until now had been known for its gaming laptops and accessories, is looking to move into the smartphone business. 。

The news will no doubt come as somewhat of a disappointment to fans of Robin, which was successfully Kickstarted in 2015. The startup aimed to set its phones apart from other Android devices with its promise of leveraging cloud storage so users would never run out of space on their phones. 。
Those who backed the original Kickstarter or purchased a Robin since aren't totally out of luck, though. 。
