the first is: does the PinePhone already launched ? and ready to grab ?
i had to choose between PinePhone and Fairphone; but i prefer PinePhone due to personal preferences and special options on it;
can somebody tell me more about materials used for build the Pinephone ?
like: "is the Pinephone "fair" like Fairphone" ?
thank you for an answer, and sorry for my bad English because i'm French
Hi
Very interesting topic. I didn't know about Fairphone.
I took a quick look to their site and it looks Fairphone goal is to make a better world, go with human rights, recycling, respect earth.
Pinephone is not about that. Pinephone (as I understand) is about excitement for a Linux phone, is about privacy, out from google and apple, is about technology. Fairphone is just an android (I think).
Pinephones are assembled in China. We all know how a company in China can be. We do not know the labor conditions of those workers. China normally is used because low prices in technology. This is not (may be it is...) a critique against Pine64 using China because is the way it is.
In summary. These are two completely different philosophies.
Anyway, very interesting point! thanks!
