The Raspberry Pi phone looks similar as the Pinephone as it’s development started

Step-by-step instructions to build a smartphone that is open-source, upgradeable, repairable, and Big Tech free:

But we would prefer an architecture based on the Raspberry Pi zero 2 w and the ZeroPhone :

Or based on a Raspberry Pi zero 2 successor with more RAM. But we can do without privacy phones, and as long as these are not sold by Digitec Switzerland we won’t probably buy or build another one. But if the Pinephone would have been built upon to the Raspberry Pi platform, we would eventually be interested in this phone.
