Critical phone components (or rather, their drivers and/or firmware) are not open however. I would like a platform with x86-level standardization but competitive power efficiency a lot. I don’t see it happening though. It’s not down to the phone makers, but to the component suppliers—like Qualcomm.
- fsflover 4y ago> Critical phone components (or rather, their drivers and/or firmware) are not open however. They are either open or isolated in Librem 5.
- KAKAN 4y agoLibrem 5 is much more expensive, too. And the performance isn't even comparable. It's not viable for a company like ASUS to go for the same approach. And not many consumers would buy them, either.
- CaptainZapp 4y agoI'm seriously looking into Sailfish and, by implication, a Sony Experia for my next phone.
- hammyhavoc 4y agoSailfish is interesting, but depending on what you do on your phone, you may find it an inappropriate choice of daily-driver. Just like a PinePhone is interesting with trying different Linux distros, ultimately you will very likely realize that you need battery life, reliability and to stop farting around with your phone actually working and get on with your everyday life.
