Am I ready for a PinePhone
#9
You may instead (dare I say it) buy a second hand One Plus One or Nexus 5 etc and push UBports excellent and working Ubuntu Touch ports through it as a daily driver.
Phone - works
Camera - Works
Browser - Works
Whatsapp - no

they can be picked up for few less coins on ebay and for a test will help you decide before the next more improved Pinephone is ready

Put it this way I have had both...still have One Plus one and a 3t running Ubuntu so a pinephone would (although nice) be a down grade at the moment for me as they work (3T less so but enough)

or Amiga, and your favourite desktop Linux, at the swap of an SD card.
