There are mentions of changes related to "MSM8998" in the freshly released Linux 5.0 changelog (see https://www.cnx-software.com/2019/03...m-mips-risc-v/ for example). So it is actively being developed in mainline. This is encouraging !

Are there some linux guru there that know what kind of support is already there for this platform ? Like any other phone with this SD835 booting with linux ?

That isn't so bad eh?

Thing is though...
I already have one nexus 5 with buntu
One waiting for leste...

And one a nexus 5 with lineage on it...
And in my personal opinion ...
That is just one device too many with android on it.

If chens device ran linux natively ...
I would seriously consider the purchase.

But I am not about to entertain the notion if any device ...no matter how great it may seem or be...if it runs droid, windows , apple, or sailfish ...

Linux please....
and I will consider it...
Otherwise ...I don't even second think it.

@Chen,
Is there a limit on how many pre-orders you will be taking ?
If the limit is not in numbers, maybe it is in time (obviously before launch, but to what extent) ?

I know we can just pre-order to show interest and/or commitment, and possibly back out if the project is not satisfactory (at least regarding the possible OSes), but I'd rather wait and see if/how progress is made on SFOS and Leste (and possibly other contenders... ?) than pre-order "blindly" while hoping for the best (yes, I'm on the half-empty team ), which would give you pre-order numbers that may be based on mere curiosity and/or expectation and thus not fully-commited buyers.
Of course I'd rather it not be at the expense of missing the (pre-)ordering window...

Speaking of pre-orders, whenever that ship will have sailed, will the price stay the same, obviously without the "Limited Edition" (whatever that means besides being part of the pre-order) earphones and case ?

On the case subject (I hope you guys love the smooth transitions ), nobody answered the totally valid and on-point question from SaiKo...
I'm probably with the underdogs by preferring the rigid pouch-style "cases", so I'm not expecting the pre-order case to be of that type, but do you know if there's any other pouch on the market that fits that bill (it doesn't have to be tight), in case (pun intended) you've checked the market for third-party apparatuses that could be used with the Pro1 ?

Considering the the size of the device, I would also be more interested in a pouch, wich makes it possible to carry the Pro1 on a belt. I don't think it will fit in every trousers pocket.

oh no no no no nonononono!
A pouch with a belt attachment???

I am SO in now...
As the fashion gurus say...
there are only 3 rules to obey...
"accessorize accessorize accessorize..."

I just HAVE to have one now...
so I look cool strutting down the street...
with my fx ...
in its pouch...
on my belt...

Why...
Not that coolness matters or anything...
But I always wanted to be that guy...
who looks so ...
so ...
"with it"...

Like this guy and his pouch ...on a belt...
