>compared to even a low-spec x86 laptop

I mean... I have a Braveheart edition PinePhone sitting right next to me, and it's usable, but I don't think I'd want to do even light development work on it. Not because an editor wouldn't run just fine on it (it probably would) but because of all the documentation I'd need to look up online during that process.

It's just sluggish enough with a few webpages open to make that sound pretty unpleasant. But fair, "unacceptably slow" may have been a bit hyperbolic.

(As it stands, I do have a PineTab on preorder, so... I’ll likely be giving it a try then, and that has nearly the same hardware as I understand.)
