AND... You end up with an outdated OS if you don't pay for the subscription.

Saw that, I guess you can switch to Ubuntu touch, postmarket OS or a couple of others, but this is the single reason I didn't just buy it right now.

I would also like to know what the camera is like on it, but having to pay for an OS subscription every year is just nope for me.

They're literally making the same mistake Nokia made with Maemo. It's the same people after all.

But I guess it's at least working out financially because they've been around for a while now.
