Linux-based phone still ‘runs 99% of Android apps’ so you can do more with it, if you wish.

    $500 is too much for a dumb smartphone. I would get it for maybe 200-300 since I don’t need social media apps and I can sideload a firefox fork apk, it does look enticing as a phone that looks really retro and wants to “disconnect” you from being permanently online, but for that price one would expect something more. Starting by, at least, 128gb of storage.

    Nice AI slop image on the article.

    Does it have a notification led strip or a camera at the foot of the case? Who knows? Is there an antenna? Only when it’s open and viewed from the back apparently.
