Phones what i have most interested Volla phone Pixel 3a Fairphone 4 Pinephone or pinephone pro Any thoughts or ideas
What distro do you use? Is there anything that doesn’t work/works awfully? I understand the camera used to be a problem but dunno if that’s still the case
I use Arch Linux ARM (with Danct repos).
Camera works and sometimes broken after suspend, but I don’t use it. Audio on calls sometimes buggy. But megi resolved call issues, I updated today. Battery life is poor unless you use a keyboard. Battery indicator displays combined percentage which isn’t ideal.
Sounds good. I use my phone camera a lot so that’s a slight dealbreaker for me but could probably live with the rest. Super interesting to see how it’s improving all the time!
Yeah, if you need a camera, then I would highly recommend to stick with Android for now :)
