I’ve been looking at phones lately and I’ve seen this company called Enough from their YouTube kickstarter video. It’s them and SLEKE (maker of OdesseyOS) working on building a nice size phone. I’m thinking of supporting their kickstarter because I am tired of these humongous phablets, and I can’t stand on how they feel in my hand when holding them.
The phone has everything I want but I am really wondering if the bootloader will be unlockable.
—-———————————————————————————————————
Some important edits that should be added; (after looking on Enough’s website and kickstarter)
- No unlockable bootloader
- No sideloading
- On Enough’s website, storage is expandable by MicroSD or that same space is using a physical SIM card and you have the option for eSIM
- No headphone jack, but a USBC to 3.5mm converter is given if you do the kickstarter
- Stock android or OdessyOS only (from SLEKE); no flashing capabilities at all
- Replaceable battery
- Price of phone from kickstarter:
- Super Early bird price: $399 USD (sold out)
- Early bird: $449 USD
- Kickstarter special; $499 USD
- Retail price after campaign: $599 USD
Put a snapdragon in it and I’m sold
I went to their website and it has the MediaTek one with 5g/4g LTE. Unfortunately I think the phone would be priced even higher if they tried to do that.
Not necessarily, the Poco M8 for instance has a Snapdragon 6 in it and costs less.
Snapdragon chips tend to not be unlockable unless the carrier or manufacturer deems it so.
That has nothing to do with the chip though…
Snapdragon chips also tend to be more efficient and supporting the non-shit bluetooth audio codecs
