Always excited to see more “buy here” alternatives rather than “just” an OS or custom ROM. Obviously we need that too but all too often we get stuck having to buy another phone we do not want (e.g. Pixel because Google) or hardware that’s not supported enough for daily driving (e.g. PinePhone with camera still not supported properly on Pro, years later, power management unable to handle a day of use).
Unfortunately “FuriOS” doesn’t look like a reliable alternative just based on the number of eyes, and hands, on it, cf https://github.com/FuriLabs so unless they can somehow pull all that weight on their own then I’d let others try before me and read reviews on the whole experience, not solely the quality of the hardware or the architecture of the software.
