@linmob Except the Librem5 is 5 times the price, so I think it's still nice that the PinePhone cost is much affordable for tinkerers.

@danct12 Sure, I didn't mean to imply that I don't love the #PinePhone anymore. Both devices have their plusses and minusses, and are great in their own ways.

@linmob @danct12 Price-wise it is like putting a Ferrari next to a Fiat.
You wouldn't compare them in terms of (horse)power, would you?

The important question is probably not for maximum specs, but what you actually want to do with it and need therefore...and then...if the price is suitable. ;)

@hrodnand Look, you have a point and I guess I shouldn''t have tweeted it this way. There is a steep difference in price, but having followed both projects from their start (not that publicly) I just felt that pointing out that the #Librem5 does something great is warranted. I am really tired by all the shit @purism get, even by people that like #phosh and the #libhandy apps, which simply would not exist without the #Librem5 project. That said, I love my #PinePhone and should read less reddit.

@linmob @hrodnand @purism and correct the current pinephone being sold the pmos version ships with phosh on it so even if they never released a phone and they deff will I preordered a LIbrem 5 so even if they never did put out a phone the work they do on phosh and stuff is commendable and many projects benefit from said work such as postmarketOS Mobian etc etc
