I'm more interested in that Nitro Phone 4, tbh. Not in buying it, as I'd just flash it myself, but it's an interesting product. They also include options for removing sensors, microphones and cameras, which seems kind of cool and crazy - without the microphones how do you make calls?!

[–] pricklypearbear@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago (1 children)

You either connect a mic via Bluetooth or wired headset.

Bluetooth, doi, don't know why I didn't think of that.

[–] csolisr@communities.azkware.net 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Either you plug a wired microphone each time you receive a call, or you explicitly do not receive calls with the device and use it as a tablet basically.

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

Ahh yeah that makes sense.

I don't understand, isn't the Nitro just a rebranded Pixel with Graphene?

[–] TWeaK@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

Yup it is, but apparently they also have options to physically remove components for added security. It costs €300 though, on top of the premium they charge for simply installing GrapheneOS and putting a sticker on the back.

So yeah, I find it interesting, but I don't think it's something I'd buy lol.
