    Yeah last Linux phone that I bought was a scam. I’m not buying another until it’s from a reputable business.

    I bought the pro1x and it never came in.

    More competition is always nice, but not if they’re only building their own OS backbones. For linux mobile to be viable, it’s gotta be a team sport on the software stack

    I do not see much added value in a hacky phone, which does not use an open source processor. Only RISCV and a fully open source OS and bootloader will add enough value to compensate the massive convenience loss of not simply using GrapheneOS.

    Rochchip is a great Pi alternative but the node they use is far less efficient than Qualcomm. So not a great phone chip.
