Hey people! I was wondering if anyone here has heard of/ used Morena’s /e/OS and would be willing to share some opinions?
I was looking to get a FairPhone 5 sometime soon anyways and randomly came across the option to get it “without Google”
Which took me a bit off guard because I never really considered that something like that could be an option (without the hassle of rooting a phone and slapping a custom OS on it). So - is it any good? It says that you can still install most regular Android Apps. I don’t think I would miss any specific Google features, and getting a fresh start with a phone does sound nice.
Easy install, OTA updates, you can buy a Fairphone preinstalled with it.
So mainly easier access I would say, while not having a downside.
Downside: Not LinageOS :)
It’s based on LOS; you get all the features.
Preinstalled is the biggest difference I would suppose. People like what they get.
