This person doesn't need the core features of a modern smartphone: consistent alarms and reliable connectivity. As such, it is no wonder they love the pinephone: it is essentially a tiny laptop!

That said, I don't find this very compelling: I am in fact called by people and I don't think having to implement a hack around the system's sleep state is acceptable (especially given that it may still not be reliable, what with the dependability profile of the connectivity chipset). It may be more accurate to call this a Pine: Not much of a phone to be found.
