Another week, another update: The failed crowdfunder is not the end for Liberux, two usage reports, Jolla unveils plans for open-sourcing SailfishOS apps, Phosh 0.48.0, and more! Enjoy!

The Liberux NEXX was designed to be the most powerful Linux phone to date, with features including a Rockchip RK3588S processor, support for up to 32GB of user-replaceable RAM and 512GB of storage, an OLED display, and support for 5G networks. But when the Liberux team launched a crowdfunding campaign in early June the nearly $1.7 million goal seemed like a moonshot...

The Humane Ai Pin was supposed to be a wearable device that allowed you to interact with an AI assistant throughout the day without using your phone or computer. But when it hit the streets last year it was widely panned as an overpriced, underpowered device that largely failed to deliver on its promise. So it wasn't a huge surprise that when HP acquired the company this year, it shut down Humane's servers and effectively turned existing devices into expensive paperweights.

On paper the Liberux NEXX looks like it could be the most powerful smartphone to date that's purpose-built to run free and open source GNU/Linux-based software. But it's kind of a tough sell at this point for a few reasons: the NEXX is the first product from a company that's never shipped anything before. The closest thing to a working prototype so far is just a mainboard.

Over the past few years a number of companies including Pine64 and Purism have released smartphones designed to run mobile operating systems based on a mainline Linux kernel. But the Liberux NEXX is a work-in-progress Linux phone that could be the most powerful to date... if it actually makes it to mass production. First introduced earlier this year, the NEXX features a 6.34 inch, 2400 x 1080 pixel OLED display, a Rockchip RK3588S processor, 32GB of memory, and 512GB of storage, as well as support for 5G networks.

Earlier this year the folks at Liberux announced plans to build a Linux smartphone that combines the kind of features you'd expect from a modern phone with the hardware you'd expect from a pretty good single-board computer. The Liberux NEXX is expected to have a RK3588s Processor, a 6.34 inch, 2400 x 1080 pixel OLED display, 32GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage, along with dual USB 3.1 Type-C ports, a headphone jack, hardware kill switches, and a 5,300 mAh battery.

Google's Android may be the world's most widely used operating system, while Apple has shipped billions of iOS and iPadOS devices since 2007. But a relatively small group of developers and enthusiasts have been working to make mobile Linux into a viable alternative. There are a handful of phones that are designed to support operating systems that use a mainline Linux kernel.
