By the way, which is the most usable Linux phone at a reasonable price?
@techsaviours OnePlus 6 with postmarketos or Pixel 3a with UbuntuTouch if you need camera

Does linux need to come pre-installed?
If so, you are looking at the pinephone or the librem5.
The price of the librem5 might place it out of reach, but there is a night and day difference between it and the pinephone for usability.

If I remember right, last year when I went kayaking, I left itin suspend for asbout 8 hours and it wss down to around 40-45%. Since it is my daily driver, I don't usually leave it in suspend that long.
Light usage, it will last most of the day.
I keep a charger at the house and office, as well as in my jeep and backpack so that I always have one wherever I go.

It has been over a year since I used the pinephone, but usability on the Librem was vastly improved over the pinephone when I moved over. Call quality on the pinephone made it virtually unusable as a phone a year ago.

So, I accidentally left the librem in the jeep last night.
It's battery percentage was in the 90's when I got home at 7:30ish. It was at 46% at 6:30 this morning.
@pavel @techsaviours @lolgzs @Lioh @justin
No, its not great, but it is a vast improvement over both the librem and pinephone a year ago.
I keep a charger at work, at home, in the jeep, and in my backpack. I have accepted the fact that I will probably ruin the battery.

Do you use the original pp or pro?
I just updated my Android to version 14 and now had to experience that lsposed github repo is archived. I was still using xprivacylua.
Anyway, I'm tired of Android. I want to try Linux Mobile again.
Does call work on the Pro?
I have 3 batteries, so it could last at least a day.
Still looking for a oneplus 6 as well.
@techsaviours @pavel @lolgzs @Lioh @justin
I have used both. but I haven't used either in over a year. Calling was much better on the PP than on the Pro a year ago. The Pro was virtually unusable as a phone (though, I managed for a year myself with it).
Call quality and general usability is why I recommend the Librem. It is definitely more expensive but overall it is a much better product.
