Being super clumsy I dropped mine shortly after receiving it which smashed the screen. I pre-ordered mine and due to it being a brand new and relatively obscure device there weren’t any cases or screen protectors available.
To be honest though I was considering abandoning it not long after getting it anyway. I ordered one with Ubuntu Touch. They hadn’t finalised the Ubuntu Touch support so I received it with Android installed with a promise that instructions to flash Ubuntu Touch to it would materialise soon, don’t know if they ever did. IIRC the Android version on there was vanilla AOSP and there wasn’t much integration work done for the physical keyboard. The keyboard is mainly what I bought the phone for and whilst it worked OK hardware wise a keyboard of this size is nowhere near as efficient as an on screen one.
I agree with every single bit of this but felt like I was being attacked the whole time I read it. Maybe it’s PTSD from asking questions in Linux forums as a kid and getting ripped into with long replies. Does anybody else feel that way?
