Thanks! Yes, I also looking at the Xreal One (Pro) right now.

Interesting - especially the part about the hair 😅

Does the screen look good? It’s hard to tell from video reviews - it looks like a projector screen. How does the quality compare to a real display?

Ukraine. Of course, it could just be a local thing since it depends on your social circle. But the things my parents told me make total sense to me.

I’ve asked many people who were born in the USSR, and I think about half of them feel that the shit we’ve had since then is way worse.

It wasn’t perfect by any means, but I think we should have improved it with reforms instead of splitting into poor countries and giving all the power to oligarchs.

Interesting observation!

Honestly, I’d buy a phone with RK3588S, but $1,300 is overkill. I’d rather much prefer to downscale other specs to make it around 400-500$.

Here is the comparison with Tensor G4.

RK3588S is a bit slower then Snapdragon 865, which is 5 year old.

I think RK3588S is nowhere near Pixel 9 CPU.

Awesome progress! What Linux phones do you use?

I have a PinePhone Pro, but it’s quite low-end…

Great news, I also found Plamo a bit sluggish in the past! Will give it a go!

Welcome aboard!

Never got a virus or at least I don’t know about it 😅 But always install packages from official repositories or AUR (but I usually inspect PKGBUILDS for unpopular stuff).

I also tried with the fingerprint sensor enabled, but managed to reproduce the issue :(

That’s strange - they said they finished shipping. Maybe try reaching out to them.

What keyboards have you tried?

I’m aware of musl/Linux, uClibc/Linux and other variants - I just wanted to distinguish them from Android since they all use the Linux kernel 🙂

GNU/Linux is just the most common.

I’m guessing cases for this are hard to come by?

Never looked for a case. But it’s a rare beast, I don’t think there is any case for it in the wild 😅

And what about lint/dust/sand

I think it closes quite firmly. So dust doesn’t get inside.

Good point! Another issue is that only FUTO and FlorisBoard currently offer FOSS swipe implementations, both of which are in alpha. The AOSP keyboard doesn’t have this feature - it’s exclusive to Google Keyboard.

You can still buy one from backers. Since deliveries only recently finished, many units are still in near mint condition.

I bought it from someone on the unofficial Discord server. They have a dedicated channel for that. It felt a bit shady, but at least the prices are fair.

Ah, I thought it’s about Valve’s Proton 😅

Yeah, I heard that many units have antenna issue. Before buying I asked the seller to test it for me. My unit was unaffected by the issue.

Yeah, the situation with the company is not great.

Big thanks to the guy keeping lineage working on it!

There actually 4 maintainers for this device! It was a surprise for me. Usually it’s 1 guy.
