PC/Mainboard manufacturers absolutely do create drivers and utility applications for their products, for Windows and Mac. The OS provides the rest of the functionality.
The issue with Pine64 economics is that such an OS doesn't exist yet, at least on their phones. What good are drivers if there's no dialer app available, for instance?
- megous 4y agoThere exist several OSes with support for Allwinner A64 SoC used in Pinephone. Linux certainly has support for Pinephone. Dialer apps also exist.
- selfhoster11 4y agoAre any of these usable as a daily driver, and at least 90% as reliable as mainstream phones when it comes to placing/receiving calls, ringing, and notifying about new SMS messages?
