Nokia is re-releasing their 6310 phone this year and honestly I'm more tempted to go down that path at this point. Just a regular, reliable phone. The most painful thing for me at this point will probably be authenticator apps.
That said the pine phone looks really cool and I hope they succeed. Mobile Linux is going to be such a large uphill battle without huge investments. But with Google/Apple having compensation packages amounting in the 300k-500k+ per year you'd think there would be room for a competitor in there somewhere.

- busymom0 5y agoDoes the Nokia allow you to load mp3 files and play them? That would solve it for me.
- rjsw 5y agoAll of the HMD/Nokia feature phones can play mp3 files.
- baby-yoda 5y agois there a roadmap for Nokia feature phones? would take an updated 6310 but would really love an e71/72 successor with modern features.
- slim 5y ago6300 has kaios. It should have the authenticator apps in store.
- wott 5y agoUnfortunately Nokia is just a brand now, in the hands of a Chinese company which sells rather quickly and cheaply developed products. The phones which are sold under this brand are often buggy and never updated. Some run Series 30+, some run KaiOS, some run Android derivatives. The landscape of dumb/features phones is worse now than it was 10 years ago, which is a pity. For example, jut imagine that it is hard these days to get one which does predictive typing right... or that the cameras are worse than 10 years ago.
