So far running mobian and yes everything they say is true.

  • I can make pictures
  • I can get Emails
  • I can chat trough fractal/matrix
  • I have mastodon which is kind of twitter but better
  • I can browse the web
  • I can make phone calls
  • I can send and receive SMS text messages

Recent News per Jan. 2021

Its not a daily driver yet, but many improvements have been added

  • Battery Live is much better with suspend and runtime improvements. It lasts more than a day now. I don't get any calls though, so I don't know how it wakes up.
  • Phone calls have good quality with wired headphones and the internal speaker
  • Lollypop works nice with my Jabra Bluetooth headphones. Some edges here and there, but really great already
  • My personal favorite: I have added my phone to my ansible update playbook. So to update from file server to tv-box and phone I just use ./update!!

Goals for 2021:

  • Get rid of Whatsapp? Maybe a big approach but hey.
  • Use my primary SIM for the Phone, so we will see how it works in daily practise.
  • Find a fun game I can play on it which enhances fun with using.
