I am considering a Fairphone 4 (or seeing the recent news, maybe 5?) for Lineage. Anyone using this combination already, quirks to be aware of, battery life, camera quality, etc?

    FP4 with Lineage OS here, no Gapps. Have been using it for 7 months now and everything seems to work as expected except for some of the sensors (mainly the pedometer) not being passed through to homeassistant correctly. But maybe it’s a configuration issue.
    Kiwix also refuses to work correctly.
    Those are very minor gripes I guess.

    The setup process was surprisingly unproblematic, I had made myself ready for pain.

    My main issue so far has been that the FP4 is just so enormous. No way to type comfortably in landscape mode. But maybe my thumbs are just too short. Either way this has nothing to do with LineageOS.
