Comment on This New Android Smartphone Is For Everyone Who Misses the Blackberry
Dyskolos@lemmy.zip 15 hours agoAren’t the 5 yrs now mandatory in the EU? And unlocking the BL I can do on most phones. Doesn’t help a lot though unless you do it all yourself. So I’d still wonder if root will be possible. I like to own the devices I buy 😊

Unless you do it all yourself? What more do you need? An unlocked bootloader means custom roms and rooting are possible, right?

possible, yes. But usually noone does those things for these smaller fringe devices that are not mainstream. So, it’s either do it yourself or be happy you unlocked a bootloader to…have an unlocked bootloader :)
