A week later. Have started using the phone, but still not as my main phone (my pinephone is still my main one). Though planning to move soon. It actually has battery to last me a whole day and not have to keep it permanently connected to a charger of some sort.

One basic issue is missing some basic documentation. There is no simple drawing of the phone to note which thing is which. It took my quite a while to realize how to replace the SIM card. Yes, maybe it is me, but I think you do aim for the masses, and adding such a thing somewhere on the web site does not cost much and reduces cost of support.

=== Doesn't yet work: ===

Podcasts: I imported my podcasts to kasts from my old phone. Next time I tried to start kasts, it crashed. I failed to get any useful information from the core dump. gnome-podcasts is currently not in Debian because of some new rust dependencies. It's work in progress but I'm not sure it will make it to Trixie. And anyway, it's not as good as kasts.

Screen on USB-C: Worked nicely on Pinephone. Doesn't work on this one. Not a must-have feature, though. And of all the Linux mobile interfaces, phosh is really not well-adapted to using it.

=== Extra Settings ===

I dislike random long interface name on my laptop and want to give more predictable ones. I tend to do that using .link files in /etc/systemd/network (not related directly to networkd). For instance, I have a file there to rename "enp61s0u2u4" (from my docking station) to "ethhome". I have various pinephones, and I could tell between the different ones using the property (See output of 'udevadm info /sys/class/net/

') IDSERIALSHORT. With the FLX1 I can easily give a name to an interface name for a single phone, but would not be easily able to tell the difference between two different ones.
