A year has passed since Commodore, the computer brand many of you know and love, came back from the dead under new ownership. The comeback is picking up pace too, with a lineup that already includes multiple Commodore 64 Ultimate editions, a C64X PC, and a licensing program that invites outside builders to use the name. Now, they have announced a return to the phone market, and not in the doomscrolling glass-slab avatar we are all used to, but in a retro, very equippable flip phone format…



At least that one is flip phone so it’s closer but it’s still not running Linux, has a worse camera, no earphone jack, no FM radio, half the RAM, far less storage, worse CPU and so on.
Is all of that worth
$350$250? Depends on your use case I suppose but it’s absolutely not the same product.$500 - $150 = $350
I realize they’re not exactly the same phone, but still, does it make sense that it would cost 233% more
I legitimately don’t know, but I’m sure the ability to run one OS over another OS doesn’t come for free.
