I’m really excited about Linux tablets, but quite apprehensive about Purism as a company. Starlabs’ new tablet does also seem like a compelling package, luckily.
Pine64’s pinetab 2 also looks pretty good
From this blog review on June 2023, it seems that camera, WiFi and bluetooth are still not working properly.
PineTab2 seems more like a developer tinkering/testing device rather than a Linux tablet alternative for Android/iPad.
8gb soldered… my phone has 16gb soldered.
But it still has a phone OS. Android is really resource hungry taking into account it’s limitations.
? eh?
Another Linux tablet is definitely good news. I like Purism’s stated values and their laptops are very solid, the Librem phone was a disappointment for me personally though.
Really people still purchase from this company? I wonder how many years people we’ll have to wait to not get their tablet?
They might do it to subsidise the software development they’ve been contributing to make so much of GNOME adaptive - for which I am grateful.
