The closest thing to that that currently exists would probably be fairphone with /e/os
No thank you
Care to elaborate?
They used to have poor band support in north America, though that seems better now on the 5. I'm still salty about the removal of the headohone jack though.
I considered it, but the specs were too low. Ended up choosing a Google Pixel instead.
what usage was limited by specs?
If all you're doing is texting, browsing the web, and making phone calls obviously specs don't matter, but to suggest that they don't matter at all is weird. After all specs includes the battery.
Obviously anything that needs higher end hardware is going to be adversely limited by the lack of that higher end hardware. It's a bit like asking how the lack of wheels affects a car. Obviously it affects it a lot.
I literally asked, you implied.
