    So, still no phones that have full support for core functionality.

    “Camera” looks like it’s causing some headaches

      Both Pinephone and Pinephone Pro are almost fully supported, including the camera. In any case, we have only the hardware manufacturers to blame for this.

        You blame hardware manufacturers for a misleading headline? Odd.

          What exactly is misleading?

      Camera and baseband seem to be the general pain points. Somewhat unsurprisingly, given that both are complicated black box devices.

      @DerisionConsulting @poVoq even on custom android ROMs you don’t have full camera support.

    If I wanted to give Linux phones a serious try, (and given a PostmarketOS thread, postmarket specifically)

    What device do I buy? What gives me the best experience to cost ratio?

      @RecallMadness @poVoq oneplus 6/6t is the one supported by most of linux distros and also has close to 99% compatibility and stability.

    So, there aren’t any phones that have all core functionality supported?

      There’s lots of “partially works” that are basically at 99 % perfection, where a small use case is not tested, or buggy, or something.
