So at this point it's not actually a phone. It's a concept for a phone that they're planning to build but there's not even a beta yet by the sounds of it.
Good idea, but a ways to go before it may become an actual product
Still disappointed with the Librem 5 and pine phone, this seems like it will be even more disappointing.
What has been the issue with librem 5? It seems to me that they delivered what they promised and they continually keep releasing updates and upstream commits
Have you tried actually using it? It is an awful experience, the pine phone, despite worse specs, performed significantly better, but neither is ready for use as a reliable daily communication device.
Damn you, Voice of Truth! Curse you for ruining my dreams and crushing my hope.
When will I be able to get a daily driver Linux phone that doesn't suck?
The only blocker for me with the pine phone was battery life. Part of that was the OS,but part of it was the small battery.
