What phone is it? Did it come preinstalled?

Edit: Google Pixel?

I was referring to the Pine Pro that has Kde preinstalled. :wink:

Ah, I see. For now!

Google Pixel 4XL

It did not come pre installed, I flashed it again yesterday. I had the motherboard and battery replaced under warranty.

I also just picked up a OnePlus 8T for Calyx as well. It’s in beta testing and should be ready for the big dance in a month or two.

Oh yes, I am also really happy with my Android, however I’m on GrapheneOS :smile: Both Calyx and Graphene are awesome :ok_hand:

I came across another smartphone, which has different OS :
