How about the PinePhone or another device supported by PostmarketOS?

[โ€“] octt@feddit.it 2 points 2 years ago

The PinePhone is probably the only one I could ever buy, because all the other ones (unless there's some new out there) are too costly, both phones that come without Android, and Android phones for which the community ported Linux (no one ports good ROMs for cheap phones).

But, at that point, since the experience isn't really that smooth for a smartphone (never tried it, but the majority of people who did say so), might as will just build myself an UMPC with a cheap Linux SBC, and also have perks like a built-in phisical keyboard. Then I would just use a featurephone for calling, SMS, taking pictures, and WiFi hotspot for my UMPC.
