This looks very interesting! Headphone jack and everything!

I have an Pixel2 and was thinking I'd get an iPhone next, but I'm really turned off by Apple's behaviour lately. I also don't want to send more money to Google.

I'm willing to accept that it may not be as polished as the big players, but how would you say it compares to other high-end Android phones?

And if you've tried running linux on it is it usable with reliable call quality?

I have been using the device with my own build of LineageOS 16.0. It's an Android-Linux OS but it has a custom Linux kernel where I have been customizing the keyboard driver. There are a few blobs in there but it's not too bad. Reception and sound quality have been totally fine with no complaints.
