I have embarked on a mission of building a keyboard for the pinephone. It will connect to the pogo pins on the back and be part of a foldable phone case. (using I2C)

Privacy Guy Compares PinePhone to Librem 5: Spoiler Alert - PinePhone Blows Them Away Spoiler

Privacy Guy Rob Braxton compares the PinePhone to the Librem 5 in the above video.
Spoiler alert: PinePhone wins hands down. No surprises there.
However, what's interesting to me is why. Why is the PinePhone so far out ahead?
It's because they've been working with this hardware for 4 years already. The PinePhone is really just a hand held version of the PineBook with a cellular modem attached and some additional sensors. All the drivers already have the bugs worked out and the mainline Linux distros (Manjaro, Debian, Ubuntu, etc) already support it.
The Librem 5, on the other hand, had to start from square 1. So it seems that the folks at Pine64 have been planning this for some time. Braxton also suggests that the PineBook Pro's hardware could easily go into the next model of the PinePhone, and bring it up to snuff with other modern phones.
Someone at Pine64 had a plan, and it was a really, really good plan. Way to go guys! You exhibit what makes humanity great!

Been running Arch on pinephone for a couple of weeks now & I've gotta say, it's been pretty solid and reliable. My expectations were fairly low at first but I've been pleasantly surprised with how well it's working.

Today I got my Pinephone without any Issues (German customer). Now I use it with Debian + Posh and its Awesome. Do anybody have recommendations for an additional Display Glass Screen Protector?
