@freemo

Why they dont use latest Chip even budget one are better then SD 801 🙄? This will help Make device more future proof and better battery life.

@inditoot True, but they are coming out with a new version later this month i hear. I wonder if the core cpu is modular too?

@freemo

Yeah, Switching Social Posted something today about them FYI They are on Fediverse.

although CPU cant be modular as In Phone its SOC (Kind of raspberry pi) consists of multiple parts.

@inditoot well those parts could all be on one big modulejust means the cpu module might be half the price of the phone

@freemo

ahh That sound cool but i think its not possible at the moment.

Follow

@inditoot One day maybe. I'm all about hackable hardware.
