Pinephone exists now, you can buy it today. It runs Linux.

Calls/SMS do work although are not 100% so if you absolutely need these to be reliable you could get a brick phone for like £15 to cover that and then use the Pinephone as a pocket computer. I used it as my only phone for a couple of years and it was mostly fine, now it doesn't have a SIM in it and its perfect as a pocket PC.

Follow pine64 news, they stopped producing new pinephones since they arent in demand enough

I thought that was just the pro?

If calls/SMS are not 100% then it’s not a phone

That is where the dumb phone comes in which only deals with calls/SMS.

If you have to buy a dumb phone for your smartphone then you did not buy a smartphone, is my point

If you can't even install software on it then its not an overly smartphone.
