    Hey, Clicks gang! I just pre-ordered. Looks interesting! I’m coming from using the Palm Phone, Unihertz Jelly, Light Phone 2, Pixel, iPhone mini, and back to Pixel with YAM Launcher.

    I was just considering getting a Light Phone 3 and using it as a communication device.

    Ideally, I would like to use a dumb phone 90% of the time and only only pull out my smartphone from a drawer 10% when I go outside. I’m slowly coming around to the idea of maybe trying to manage having 2 different phone numbers.

      That is really an interesting device i have been following a time now.

      But it is more a tinkering device that will be possible to use as a phone, that a phone first device.

      But it will come with its own OS wich is interesting

      Yeah I get that. But it’s refundable up to the point of shipping, they have shipped hardware before so I think it’s reputable enough to at least trust that I’ll either get the thing or get my money back.

      Plus it’s not like some huge company, they probably legitimately need some cash flow from these and the support matters. I wouldn’t preorder a Galaxy phone.

    I also reserved.

    I come from a blackberry key2 as my daily driver, so different aspect ratios are not uncommon for me.

    And as the phone is from 2018 and with android 8.1 its time for something new.

    But i wont bet it will come out this year, i estimate middle 2027
