| Here's a more complete list of OSes [1] Pinephone is China or Hong Kong based. It comes with one month warranty (within EU, warranty must be 2 years). Maemo Leste is not based on Android, neither is Sailfish OS. These are Linux OSes, but the Android emulation layer (which SFOS has but costs money for license) might be Android-based, I don't know. Maemo Leste contains no Android emulation, it actually predecesses Android. Nokia was into Linux-based mobile devices back in the mid 2000's. You could also add devices like Planet Astro Slide to the list as it comes with a hardware keyboard (if its like the Cosmo one then I can say: the one Pinephone has, isn't quite as good, but is also relatively cheap). I posted about recent smartphones with hardware keyboards here [2]. Iodé might also be interesting, I don't know anything about it other than its a LineageOS + microG adaptation, like /e/ [1] https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone_Software_Releases [2] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30415716 |
