      Sorry for breaking your dream but as far as I know, Linux phones are not usable because of crappy drivers for peripherals. Performance is not generally the most glaring issue. Though at least this SoC won’t have trouble going to sleep compared to the pinephone.

        Exactly, which is why this helps reboot that dream. I’m not going to hold my breath, but I certainly hope this does open some avenues for that.
