The Liberux Nexx smartphone will be (if it makes it to the production stage) the most powerful smartphone (with the RK3588S) to run GNU/Linux and the mainline kernel. More powerful than the PinePhone Pro, or the OnePlus 6. It will have a decent OLED display, alot of RAM, and much of what you would expect from a privacy-focused GNU/Linux smartphone such as hardware killswitches.

That is to say, this phone will (hopefully if it releases) be a true daily-driver candidate for many people, more so than the current offerings are now. While I am skeptical of it (as I am with any crowdfunded project) I think this will be a great thing if it does make it to production.

The biggest thing keeping me from daily driving a Linux phone is the camera. I want a good camera, not an afterthought. I can only guess from the renderings, but this thing looks like the camera was an afterthought.

Here is all the information I could find from their website:

Main: 32 Mpx

Front: 13 Mpx
