So it has been a "stupid" question of mine. Wink

Currently I am waiting for the delivery of my SD card and an additional SIM for my mobile contract.
More testing of mine will follow up when I will have got these.

Q: Is it possible to check the hardware (not only the cameras) apart from the use of Ubuntu Touch?

I would like to be sure the hardware of my particular Pinephone is working well. Then I could report software bugs more easily, as I would know it is not an hardware issue.
From your post it sounds like youve just used it out of the box. Its worth noting this is probably an old rudimentary build. You should probably flash the latest build to an SD card and enable OTA dev channel for updated builds. Currently back cam is working, but backwards and low res. If you wish to test more features of the hardware you can install other OSes which have more functions working. Same thing, download from the repo, flash to an SD card. With the pinephone SD cards function like a live drive. It will book whatever os you stick in. All settings and data will be saved to the sd. The build preinstalled on your phone's emmc is unlikely to get used much if ever. Its really a fall back/ proof of concept / place you can tinker if you have lots of time. It will function like a small computer, but phone functionality will come from your SD card distros.
