From a quick listen I gather that this is just about speed issues. Unless the PPP delivers that speed with the same or better battery life I don't even consider it a serious competition for the PP.
Let's wait and see.
Yes the battery life probably is a big problem. Also for the normal pinephone is not yet perfect and I need to carry an additional battery pack.

It works with a lot older devices without issues, because we are not dependent on some company for updates. The modem and GPS will be just as bad on PinePhone Pro (it's the same modem) and we will still need responsive apps. Maybe at least this time convergence will work. I'm actually disappointed that there aren't more hardware changes like improving the SIM slot or the kill switches.
So really the only change in the new model is that things will run faster and we will be able to run more games.
I partially agree with you. In fact, I have to say that when I first got the pinephone, I tried ubuntu touch. It is the best experience I ever had on the pp. Super smooth. Then at some point it got broken and I switched to Manjaro with posh. But I miss the super smooth experience of ubuntu touch. This to say that yes there is still a lot to improve, I agree with you.
I disagree when you guys tend to accept the way of behavior that here it is played. As I wrote before, I was sure I could constantly upgrade the main board but it is not the case. Probably we will still do that anyway. When they will place the new board on the website I will think about getting it.
