Open source....forever software updates until nobody cares to update the bloody thing.
You would like postmarket os as it is foss and software support is 10 years atleast.
Huh, they support a lot more hardware than they used to, that's pretty amazing! I may have to try it out.
Any idea if MMS is supported properly yet? That has been my main hurdle, and it looks like my other issues (battery life and audio quality) may be resolved by picking other hardware than the PinePhone.
Good news MMS has been functional since 2021.
Really? I thought it got stuck and you had to run a script periodically to get it unstuck. If it's truly reliable and supports pictures and group chats, I'll have to find a compatible device and check it out.
The PinePhone HW looks a bit rough, so hopefully one of the community supported devices works well and has better battery life and audio quality
Android is as closed as an open-source project can get.
