Tbh I would accept anything usable without being bound neither to Google nor Apple. Like a Linux phone but with usable apps which is quite important.
For example Samsung gets free MP3 player and more important, background-running voice recorder, which is extremely important for me, but was impossible to find on OnePlus One.

- My2Cents276366 2y agoAs an owner and occasionally serious user of the above device, I can say that, no, it is not usable as a phone by any definition that includes portability. This is due to extreme bulk and still terrible battery life, even before we get to the experience of using PureOS and Gnome for your phone OS. However, the kill switches are super cool and would be practical if the device were.
