I still have my droid 2 somewhere. I’d still buy a phone with a physical keyboard. Worst part about that phone was the random reboots and the loud “DROID” sound effect it played when it boots. Happened several times during college lectures and I got yelled at for it at least once.

I use an Xbox controller with Linux. Only issue I ran into was a firmware update for the controller before it would work with Linux. I had to do the firmware upgrade through a Windows VM.

Tin whiskers could be a potential issue as well.
