      I do wonder though, why it costs double that of both the original PinePhone and also almost double a Pinebook Pro when it is essentially recycling most of the components from both…

      This isn’t just a RK3399, it’s more a RK3399S (as they call it themselves): a RK3399 modified together with RockChip specifically for the PPP. There is quite a bit of work in making that happen. Also there is more RAM, way more and faster storage, a better back and front camera and a better wifi chip supporting 5Ghz wifi (the original PinePhone only supports 2.4Ghz). I’d say the price jump is justified.

        Don’t forget USB 3 instead of 2!

      Yeah, this stands a chance at being a Linux phone I actually use. I don’t regret purchasing my PinePhone CE to tinker with, but it’s never been close to being good enough to be my daily driver. (Support for the original PinePhone will continue, so I could sell my original for cheap or even give it away to anyone who is interested to avoid waste.) The quick software demo in Martijn Braam’s video already looks enticing, particularly the performance of Firefox. I’ll be keeping a close eye on this as it gets in the hands of developers in the coming months.

    Probably going to wait for reviews, but this seems very promising.

    Does anyone know how well Waydroid runs 2FA and banking apps? I’m required to use a specific 2FA app, and would also like to keep using my bank’s app for mobile check deposit. Not sure if Waydroid will cause any issues or not.

      Where do you see that?

      On the linked page it shows:

      Are you thinking of the Fairphone?
