Who will be buying these? Developers?



It's a Linux phone that runs Android apps, so they ostensibly don't have the problem of building the ecosystem.


Importantly though, it won't have Google Play and the increasingly mandatory GMS, so a lot of Android apps won't work properly.

Definitely cool though and worthy of some attention.


We do however ship with microG. I have heard of people using Uber, Spotify, Lyft, Signal, etc. So Android app support isn't that bad despite no GMS.


Amazing, thank you! You just sold a phone :-)
