- adenta 10mo agowhy not?
- drcongo 10mo agoHad to use it at a prior job and hated it. Plus, you know, Google.
- automathematics 10mo agoI'm with you. But what phone are you using day to day? I keep watching for linux phones or even start to wonder if Apple is finally the "lesser of two evils" :/
- gumby271 10mo agoI wish they'd specify if the bootloader was unlock/relockable. Could have been cool to see GrapheneOS support.
- gue5t 10mo agoIt's a MediaTek SoC, so the Linux experience will be Bad to say the least. This thing will be running the oldest kernel possible with all kind of nasty vendor hacks.
- Fnoord 10mo agoThis device misses some of the requirements for GrapheneOS. It wouldn't be as secure as a Pixel. Just get a Pixel with GrapheneOS and put one of ZitaoTech's USB-C BB keyboards under it (or get a BT one).
- muppetman 10mo agoWouldn't you want battery life of more than 2 hours though?
