Not a good news for the original PP. I personally don’t use Mobian and I just use megi’s kernel, but I understand their concerns.

Obviously I am comparing both the PP and the PBP with the PPP. The two cheaper devices show that it would have been perfectly possible to make a sub 300$ device that is a functional equivalent of the PPP.
More colors on a tiny low resolution mobile screen is another one of these useless premium features they added to justify the massive price hike.
@poVoq It *could* indeed have been made cheaper. My point here is that the current price is justified by the choice of hardware components, and comparing it to either the PP or PBP needs to account for those (numerous) differences.
Whether those are “useless premium features” or not depend on one’s own needs and acceptable tradeoffs, but having daily-driven both the PP and PPP, the display alone is a huge “quality of life” improvement. But then again, that’s just my own opinion 😉️
