Another tech review.
Honestly, I’m in a “retail therapy” sort-of mood.

I am looking forward to getting the PinePhone because it has the power of the Linux desktop (though you are limited to applications supporting the ARM architecture, which is still quite a lot), it has a nice clicky keyboard accessory, it has hardware killswitches in the back of its interior, it uses gorilla glass, I finally get an SD card slot again, and it is a very versatile little machine (you can run a Java Edition Minecraft Server, try doing that on an Android) that is more freedom respecting and is well supported for repairs and maintenance. I honestly don’t like most android apps and their style, and I miss my Linux computer when I am at work, so this will be fun to play with. I plan to install Gentoo on the device and use crossdev to do the compiling on my main machine so I avoid burning up the poor thing. I also plan to get a PineTime, which will work nicely with the PinePhone, and it’s only $27.
