I sigh every time I see a comment saying phones shipping with an OS using Libhybris/Halium are a "proper Linux phone". Like, they depend on an abstraction layer with an Android kernel and drivers to make the hardware function. Adding salt to the wound, most of these devices ship some sort of Mediatek chip which is unlikely to ever see any kind of Linux mainline port.

*EDIT
Mediatek SOCs do have better mainline support these days, Mediatek is sponsoring better mainline support.

Thanks @okias for the correction.

The best performing Linux phones right now are Android phones ported to mainline and #postmarketos. Linux first devices don't compare right now, but I really hope to see more hardware in this space eventually, for the sake of our freedom to dictate what we run on our devices, including the bootloader.

Also curious to know what devices people would/currently prefer, so there's a poll at the bottom if you wanna plop down an answer as you pass by.

#linuxphone #linuxmobile #mobilelinux

Android phones ported to mainline or libhybris
Linux first devices (PinePhone/Librem 5/)
Libhybris/Halium first devices (Jolla, Volla)

#Fairphone5 #postmarketos edge #phosh #mobilelinux #linuxmobile last update went well, everything is working.

Just launched https://linuxphone.io

It’s a new forum dedicated to Linux phones—discussion, troubleshooting, apps, hardware, and everything in between.

If you’re into PinePhone, Librem 5, or postmarketOS and have a question, feel free to ask it there. #linuxphones #linux #linuxmobile

LinuxPhone Forum

Linux Phone Forum is a community space for people interested in running Linux on their phones, sharing knowledge, and exploring the future of mobile computing together.

Love to see @furilabs making progress with (proper) Linux phones

It feels like a lazy Sunday, but it's Thursday and a new Sailfish Community News is out. Read about TOH, 5.1 and great work on more low level stuff, like network, communication and telephony stack, Gecko web rendering engine and multimedia improvements.

Sailfish Community News, May 14, 2026 - Ascension Day

Sailfish OS update from Jolla Fortnight newsletter and Ascension Day! @vige authored once again Harbour news and @dcaliste Repository roundup. Big hand for both authors. Give a look what’s happening in Harbour and Sailfish OS repositories. Harbour queue is getting longer which is in away good news. Keep Calm and Hack On. TOH update The Other Half (TOH) is a swappable back cover but it is not just a back cover — it transforms your Jolla Phone. As we speak, we are preparing an update regarding...

Apparently the Fairphone 5 microphone not working with automatic wireguard call profile switching was just a race condition with q6voiced:

https://gitlab.postmarketos.org/postmarketOS/q6voiced/-/work_items/3

This means I now have calls working at a usable level with great quality on the Fairphone 5.

Since ArchLinux users must love the bleeding edge, I'm shipping this as default with my packages, so it should work out of the box going forward:
