Dude I think I might pick one of these up just for the IR, I miss the good ol days of controlling my tv and tvs on the go with my phone. I need to find out what all else it can do (and only use the powers for good), the RFID and NFC and garage doors and all that sounds like it could be convenient.

It can control pretty much anything that uses a wireless signal, it's a pretty neat device.

I just looked up some random youtube videos and man this thing would have been great while I was delivering pizza!

xiaomi phones have an IR blaster still.

Well unfortunately, call me when they have grapheneOS. The F0 honestly seems perfect just for that and it looks like it can do so much more!

[-] umbrella@lemmy.ml 3 points 9 months ago

IIRC graphene is exclusive to the pixels, no? which sadly makes it a no for me.

i have lineage on mine and it works pretty well.

Yeah because they're one of the only manufacturers that lets you relock the bootloader which is a pretty important security feature.

Isn’t Lineage really good for privacy too?

I haven’t used Android since uhhh… I don’t even remember what I flashed my HTC Dream with, but it was awesome.
