Huh? I was not aware they stopped selling the FP5 on their main shop. But it is still easily available with other online retailers. The FP6 is sadly a bit of a down-grade as it lacks some important features like display out and USB3.
The FP5 can run Ubuntu Touch and PostmarketOS quite well, yes.
My impression is that this NexPhone just uses Android16’s built in virtualization features to run Linux and Windows. The FP5 will also be able to do that once the Android16 update becomes available for it in the near future.
I think it might for Linux but they mention a boot menu and requiring a reboot for windows, so I don’t think windows is via a virtualization layer.
Also disappointing to hear the downgraded stuff for the 6. I was looking into them at once point but due to the infancy of the phone I decided against it, looks like it was a good call.
