/e/ OS on Sony XA2 recommendable?

Hi @CaseSensitive, I use XA2 pioneer H3113 as daily driver. It’s a good device and eOS runs on it very well. I ran the pie test build on it from August last year up until Xmas and I’m running it again at the moment until the Q version is released which should be very soon.

You ask about quirks. Well. I’m not a power user of apps so there may be things that I’m not aware of. Adaptive brightness has always been a bit hit and miss so I usually turn it off. Video calling in Telegram became possible on this device/OS not that long ago but the sound and picture quality is not as good as on the iPhones that the rest of my family uses! But I’m not complaining.

XA2 is an A/B device which is something to be aware of if you ever run into problems later. You will see steps in the install instructions to deal with this.

EDit: Forgot to mention, pie testbuild has not been updated since August so obv security patches out of date.
