Are you using the Pinephone as your daily driver?
#35
@daniel, whether it is feasible to use the Pinephone as a daily driver depends on what you expect and what you need. Mine will be replacing a simple flip phone that I use only as a telephone. Currently in Mobian that function is working reliably, including using the keypad to navigate automated phone systems. I've never used a cell phone for internet, email, camera, sms, mms, or anything other than making and receiving calls.  Audio quality may not be not the greatest but it works well enough. Even the short battery life is not a big concern since I keep my phone turned off when not in use. (Also I have an extra battery if needed.) I'll be transitioning to using the Pinephone as a daily use phone in about a month when AT&T disables my old flip phone so I'll see how it goes, but I expect it will work out fine.
