A phone with multiboot?
Sounds interesting. Ubuntu Touch has been very disappointing in its lack of real progress. We seriously need an alternative to the current Android/iOS duopoly.

A phone with multiboot?

I'm about to juat get a sim card for a laptop and run that since I rarely make phone calls anyway.
Any info on repairability, security and OS updates?
fairphone with preinstalled /e/os is a great degoogled ethical and european choice!
Second this! Got mine from murena a couple days ago and its brilliant
/e/os is a degoogled os, so not out of the box. Im not sure if you can opt to install them yourself later (why would you though) and i dont want to put any of that crap on this just to test it. The closest to a google thing it has is gApps, which is an open source implementation of google services.
ok, thanks for the heads up. I don't want any Google Apps, and I'm working to completely degoogle everything here.
No worries! Heres a link to their forums if you want to give it a peek for research
I am aware of fairphone. It would be good if more phones follow their example. One thing that bothers me with them is that they don't have the latest high end processors and tend to lag a lot after a couple of years.
I always said the framework laptop guys could come out with a Linux-first phone and just put something like PostMarketOS or Mobian on it and be done with it. They at least have a record on letting the parts get replaced/customized.
Isn't Volla's hardware coming from Gigaset? Gigaset makes made in Germany phones but recently was acquired by a Hong Kong company
Perfect timing for me as I'm looking for a new phone anyway. Let's compare it's features
