there is no way this is legit, guys.

if you're jonsing for the physical keyboard, I don't hate the titan slim. Its no key2, but it types. you can install blackberry keyboard on it, also.

if you want a better, more private OS, I hear GraphineOS is quite good, and you can install it on a Pixel, then use the Clicks Keyboard case with it. https://www.clicks.tech/en/products/clicks-for-google-pixel

This post is silly.

I want a Linux phone like the PinePhone, with better battery life, working basic features (MMS, quality mic and earpiece, etc), and a physical keyboard would be nice.

Until then, I'm using GrapheneOS as you mentioned. I honestly don't want Android, I just a mini Linux laptop that doesn't suck at being a phone.

Clicks keyboard is looking pretty awesome. I don't have a device to buy one or use.

No don't misunderstand, if BB made a new phone I'd preorder. I just think this post couldn't be more full of shit
