Samtime tries out a Fairphone 4 running Ubuntu Touch and it seemed pretty fine. Noted issues were the second camera not working, GPS/Map app being a bit weird, and imo, the screen showing all the apps you have open is terrible. But with the reg app store and waydroid, I think it could be almost managable to use.

My mom is a battery life fiend though, so that part she won’t let go of. What’s your thoughts?

    I have a OnePlus Nord N10 5G I picked up to play with Ubuntu Touch.

    Now that VoLTE works I can actually make and receive calls which makes it nearly usable.

    I wish RCS could work but that may be out of their hands. Group texts (MMS) don’t work either unfortunately.

    It’s close to usable but still not ready for me personally.

    I did contribute to Ubuntu Touch though by adding Colemak keyboard layout support and they accepted my pull request :D
