No audio jack –> nope.
Welcome to 2023, the 99% doesnt want them as cool as dangling cords are an all…
It’s now a fashion statement to have cordless white blobs in your ears. So cool.
Maybe, but for those who dont like looking like retards, thiers litterally every other earbud in existance.
i really don’t care about degoogling trusting some random ass company and their VPN.
Only mic and camera? It should also turn off GPS, accelerometer, etc. Filming the inside of my pocket isn’t the biggest tracking concern. People are just afraid someone’s watching them masturbate all the time.
Isn’t GPS just 3 sattelites passively shouting their clock to any who could listen? There’s no GPS kill switch because there’s nothing transmitted. WIFI kill switch is more understandable.
The article states that there is second switch to diaable wifi, data, gps etc that is essentially an airplane mode.
Better off with a used pixel and grapheneos
Poorly yes. Even though
- no headphone jack
- super expensive
- damn huge
- no SD card slot
- no hardware switches
- repairable? Idk
Not in my experience? A new Pixel 8 costs like 800€, thats like 600€ more than I would consider appropriate for a phone. All these prices are made up
- yeah no headphone jack is a bummer
- a used pixel is cheaper than than
- my pixel 5 seems pretty small, but idk what they are now or what that is so you’re probably right
- even bigger bummer than no headphone jack imo
- I don’t think those are that important, a piece of tape over the camera is fine imo
- you’re probably right there too, I wish fairphone could run grapheneos 😞
Fairphones have no secure element. The devs may be annoying, but what they dont do for a second is waste time.
Hmm, camera maybe but tape? Also microphone is not that easy. GPS, phone antennas and internet antennas are also way shadier
I wish fairphone could run grapheneos
They get this request a lot, see this: https://github.com/GrapheneOS/os-issue-tracker/issues/1961
and this.
There’s no better kill switch than the ability to remove battery
Fairphone 5. Just got mine. Love it. I’m now waiting for the /e/ or, at least Lineage image to be released for it.
