Are the fair phones working on cellular bands in the U.S.? I was hoping at this point someone just launches a small handheld gaming device I can install a Linux distro on that I can put a sim card in/esim but I haven't seen any hit the market. I figure maybe even just have a flip phone and forward the number to VoIP on the handheld.
The Steam deck is to big to carry, and isn't a mobile device in my opinion because it can't work soon as you walk out your front door, it is just a cordless device in my opinion. The GPD 4 is a bit big as well, and still isnt mobile.
If someone launches a $500-$800 handheld that maybe flips like a 3DS size and is mobile I'm sold lol (Steam deck Mobile Mini)
I was looking into this, T-Mobile seems to be the carrier for the Fairphone.

It'll probably be the next step when my Samsung bites it.
I don't think fairphones are directly available in the US, but in principle they should work in the local 5G networks without problems.
Fairphones are officially available in the US via the authorized reseller Murena (comes with e/OS).
