One of these running linux would be nice, but definitely not buying one to run Android.

I wish they'd specify if the bootloader was unlock/relockable. Could have been cool to see GrapheneOS support.

This device misses some of the requirements for GrapheneOS. It wouldn't be as secure as a Pixel.

Just get a Pixel with GrapheneOS and put one of ZitaoTech's USB-C BB keyboards under it (or get a BT one).

It's a MediaTek SoC, so the Linux experience will be Bad to say the least. This thing will be running the oldest kernel possible with all kind of nasty vendor hacks.

Wouldn't you want battery life of more than 2 hours though?

Had to use it at a prior job and hated it. Plus, you know, Google.

I'm with you. But what phone are you using day to day? I keep watching for linux phones or even start to wonder if Apple is finally the "lesser of two evils" :/
