        Does this matter if it’s already got the operating system you want installed?

            I guess I kind of assumed that’s what a formal partnership would involve, but I guess we’ll see when and if this while thing becomes a reality

    I hope they are an OEM with global reach, or at least my region, hihi. The exclusivity to certain region will limit how popular they get or it’s going to end up like fairphone. Expensive and very limited markets to drive down costs.

    Does what brand they end up with really matter? The phone is going to meet the specs regardless…

      Yes, mainly because of price.

        But GOS has already said its going to be a flagship phone that is around the same price point as the pixel…

        Yay, actually decent hardware with legacy features. Spoiler alert: probably not.

    Not fairphone. Not OnePlus. It’d be nice if it were Sony. My xperias were some of my favorite phones.
