You are not the target audience and yet you will feel effects of it. See what (almost) happened in Romania with presidential elections this year.

How about something sized as iPhone SE or smaller? This just looks like a mediocre brick that already exists on the market.

Sure, it won’t beat high-end CPUs from Intel/AMD, but a decade ago is somewhere between 4-6th gen of Core CPUs.

That’s more than enough for an average user’s Facebook machine (or WeChat probably in this case)

It’s difficult to understand the move against custom ROMs. Especially considering the size of market for “weridos” that will spend hundreds of dollars on a device and first thing they do with it is unlocking bootloader.

Take that away and you go head to head against Samsung and Apple. And you will not win.

I am on the opposite end with the battery life. When I first had P3a, I was charging it maybe twice a week. Same experience with P6a.

Now on P8, it seems a bit worse, but still I get easily 2 days from 80% battery.

I’m embracing no play services on my main profile. In general I don’t have any addictive apps(redreader was the worst) on the phone, so don’t spend that much time on it.

Got 3060 in a laptop. Updating is like a box of chocolate. You never know what will break.

On the other hand… 6800XT in my desktop. No issues whatsoever in the last 4 years. It just works since I installed it.

I used to update my Fenix 3 by downloading BIN files from Garmin website and just dropping it onto the watch’s filesystem.

For EPO I used https://github.com/scrapper/postrunner

First you need to define your requirements.

1. Is just for browsing and the router will be connected to a VDSL link with something like 100/250mbit?
2. Are you planning to have a server at home and transfer a lot of data within your LAN and need a lot of throughput?

If it’s 1, then you can get a bunch of used ac routers, something like Archer C5 or C7, flash OpenWRT on it and configure 802.11r within your LAN. This requires some fiddling, but you don’t need to spend a lot of money on a decent mesh.

For 2, well you with with €200 budget it’s going to be trikcy.
