KDE Community Edition PinePhone Unboxing and First Try!

In this video I'm "unboxing" (or, rather, showing the box and its contents) of the pinephone, and trying it for my first time!

The performance issue is acceptable as the it is running a decade old hardware. However os is very snappy compared to the previous versions.

I'm excited to see this new platform thrive! As much as I love iOS and to some extent Android, having a true Linux phone would be amazing and I can't wait to get one once it's ready for prime time! I've subbed to keep up with your progress messing with this phone!

I am not a gamer so speedy 3D graphics is not a priority for me. The progress has been amazing to me. I will certainly buy one when it is deemed ready for prime time. Keep the video updates coming!!!!

Thanks for the video but it does seem a shame you didn't have a chance to practice a little first

I wish desktop Plasma with Wayland had a working virtual keyboard too...

I receive it last week, the main problem is lagging UI, Qt or KWin? glxgears works with 60fps and actually acceleration looks working. Lag is bigger depend of elements to be drawn, in Angelfish is hard to scroll

I swore I'd switch to Linux if I could play Fallout 3 on Ubuntu. I switched to Linux full time from Windows around the time Proton came out. I stayed true to my word- I just couldn't live without my Fallouts. It's been wonderful. I hate to do this again, but I will switch to Plasma mobile the moment there are cross-platform games I can play with my family (who live across the country). My mom is on an iPhone. We play Dice w/ Buddies and Trivia Crack. Best case scenario, I want to sideload Android games.

Fonts and icons look a little small. Nice development though ...

А по человечески масштаб увеличить слабо?
