Initial thoughts, PinePhone PostMarket edition.

My thoughts from an out of the box testing experience.

postmarket/2020-09-02-Verizon.html


I am testing this on Verizon, so there is no 3G functionality available. This phone is not a daily driver out of the box as delivered.

Using a mouse on a smartphone is a little odd not going to lie. The monitor functionality didn't appear to work. Didn't test Ethernet.

Overall device looks good. Has been running for 22 hours and was still responsive and connected to internet.

OS feature seem a little slim.

  22 hours ?
              Was that plugged in to the charger ?
  On my Convergent Pkg phone with factory PMOS,    unplugged and with the bluetooth and wifi
                      turned off, I left it sit for 12 hours, when I checked it,  it was off with 0% charge.
                           I have no idea how long it had been 'off'...
  On an identical phone sitting next to that one, but running Mobian Sept 05 nightly,   that phone
      was still at 30% charge.

Sunday or Monday my new PMOS phone lost all audio, speaker, microphone, ring-tone.
Found updates in the onboard Software store, downloaded them, rebooted and sound is working again....
