    They failed with the smart ones, so that might be an improvement.

      They should just have put a stronger SoC in there, as well as a way bigger battery.

      We need raw power so that the DEs can be run smoothly to attract more people who are able to work on efficiency, which makes it possible to reduce battery size again, after.

      A Linux phone needs to be able to run games and not die so fast, like all the linux based handheld consoles. 🤔 maybe one of those PCBs can be used for strong phone by adding a modem 🤗
