@len @postmarketOS @shiftphones SHIFT6mq is one of the #linuxphones but there are many more of them, I have a Oneplus 6 2nd hand here. However, it won't have #fwupd support as the vendor does not supply the firmware to #LVFS. @shiftphones on the other hand is maybe a bit more expensive, but you get support from the vendor regarding fwupd, but also repairability and sustainability.

@len @postmarketOS @shiftphones I understand what you mean, but not all of them are in the same price range. I picked up a Oneplus 6 for ~100 euro. 2nd hand, but in a great condition. It doesn't have to be brand new, that's the beauty of @postmarketOS compared to Android which is waste after 2-3 years.The PP consists of the cheapest hardware you can find, aimed at boosting the eco system which it really did well. However, I cannot use it as daily driver: speed, battery, etc. are lacking

@dylanvanassche The battery life is the perplexing issue to me for the Pinephone. 3000 mah should be plenty. My Nexus 5 and Pixel 2 have less but last way longer.

@PublicLewdness Exactly, I don't need a lot of power. I only need calls/texts and maybe 1-3x/day a browser session of a few minutes. In exchange I need at least a few days of battery life, not 24h or a bit more.
