  Doesn’t that basically equate to “yep, this is an android phone?”

    Yup. My current one is dying and I’m using it almost always wired to a charger or battery. I don’t care how badly they try to waste my battery, I’m not buying a new Android phone ever. If this one dies, I’m prepared to not use a phone until there’s a reasonably priced Linux phone.

      Just replace the battery then. Most phone shops have the ability and tools to do it in about an hour to 3 hours.

        I’m afraid. Lol phones with non replaceable batteries suck.

    Graphene doesn’t. The way I see it is like buying a laptop with pre-installed Windows, and replacing the OS.

  … That’s because it comes with vanilla android, unless you buy the e/OS version or flash it yourself
