I used to have my Pixel 3A in 2021, and I was a Ubuntu Touch user for 2 years until I dropped the phone and ended up breaking the screen. I bought a iPhone 15 Pro as a new phone, and I hate it.. 😅
Battery life?
Will depend on each device, the health of the battery and how you use it.
Of course not better, if you want it for privacy reasons, just get a degoogled android phone. You're gonna have a way better experience
lazy video, 10 minutes with barely any information
@@myown1316 You are lazy as well! Why are you looking for videos when there is a perfectly good website you can go read?
@@pimodzzz haha if my comment insulted you then good, I hope it did a lot. This video is 10 minutes long and it barely scratches the surface of the topic, and I cannot even tell after watching the video if Ubuntu Touch is better than Android. Why waste people's 10 minutes if you haven't even "given yourself enough time to use it so you have enough content for the video"? As I said, lazy video. And you attacking me personally for saying this just further shows that you're an a-hole.
Bro, can you try doing a Sailfish OS vid, will appreciate, great content.
there is an android layer that you can install on top of ubuntu touch to run android apps
I have motorola one power, can i install it with ubuntu touch? It has same spesification with max pro m1 and max pro m1 support UT.
how's the keyboard? Is it like a real keyboard but on screen? I mean, no smart features
You can enable and disable auto-complete and autocorrect. It doesn't have more smarts other than that.
I love open-source, but it obviously fails in UX. Swiping actions being based on speed seems terrible, and all the wasted background space in the easily accessible space for right thumb, and the home button being in the most difficult corner to reach with thumb, seems like a failed attempt at Ubuntu branding by just copying the 'iconic' desktop layout :/
I use it every day since 2015. While there's some room for improvement, based on my experience, I don't agree that those choices have as big impact as you believe.
@@PodcastUbuntuPortugal what extra can you do with this that you were unable to do with the stock rom ? if we remove privacy aspect , how is it compared to android os ?
this video got 40k plus views and 1k likes even if those 1k people could humbly subscribe this dude his channel could be monetise.
Please tell us if I can use such device for navigation. Is verry important for me, because I intend to buy a Lenovo Tab M10 HD 2. Generation to use it with Ubuntu touch for navigation.
You mean GPS navigation? If so, than yes, there are several GPS navigation apps, I personally like uNav. However I'm not sure your tablet is supported (some versions of it are), and Ubuntu Touch doesn't have natively AGPS on most devices (just on Volla devices), which means that navigation is purely made by GPS, which is slower than most people are used to get an initial GPS position. I've visited many countries in Europe and navigated using an Ubuntu Touch device, and even crossed some very wide extensions (multiple thousands of km) using it.
Just subscribed, such a high quality video, it's a super interesting topic, I hope Linux becomes an option for low end phones haha.
Tak trzymaj! Ja robię Pip-Boy’a. Też raspberry pi, tani ekran od kamery cofania auta, małe radio globalne a wszystko zasilane akumulatorem z wkrętarki z przejściówką na ładowarkę samochodową USB która zasila rpi, ekran, i rękaw zrobiony z ciśnieniomierza naramiennego z EKG a radio ma własną baterię więc działa gdy reszta wyłączona.
Ubuntu, redhat and novell are 100% sold to google and microsoft... it's funny you think it is 100% google free. Can you audit systemD ? No you can't because it is tight on microsoft ideas with a ms employee. I prefer maemo leste for mobiles.
None of the things you said are true.
Fusion has a free hobby license as well if you are more familiar with it. It would be cool if you could post links to the part you use. Look forward to see how this turns out!
@@PeterCarrStav I will look into it again but I think they took away a few features from what I have heard. I will update the description for the link! Thank you for watching!❤️
Is the device encrypted? Or does the option exist?
That's a great question: currently it doesn't support natively file system encryption. But if you know how to use GPG, you can encrypt some files on your home directory.
Awesome video but "ph Ablet" almost killed me XD
Watched this a bit late, content was short and sweet. BTW, The 1k like is mine..haha!! 999-->1k
I have one but it's Verizon locked, hopefully we get Pixel 6a port one day but might be harder due to SoC :(
I can make a call, check my contacts, watch videos, and then put my Ubuntu phone in my pocket... Wow, that's incredible
Can i play games?? PUBG & football manager smoothly??
You can play some games, you can't play those.
cool vid man, never knew about Ubuntu Touch, keep making stuff
Can we develop flutter apps for Ubuntu touch?
I think so, at least a web based app
Flutter is not supported at this point. It's a goal for the future.
Running Linux on top of android as Proot or using termux is faster and more usable than the buggy hell that is Ubuntu touch.
Using Ubuntu Touch since 2015, can't agree with that opion.
Can we use apps like atleast whatsapp or UA-cam?
web apps probably, there are no native linux apps
Amazing combination of tech geeky, handsomely and deep voice
Android is the best Linux, it does everything right what Linux does wrong, all what's missing is software (apps) which can replace desktop software, once that's the case you can plug your phone to a monitor and keyboard and mouse and use it as a better desktop os than Linux or Windows.
What does Android do that Linux doesn't? 😅
@@stephensumpter5311 your question already starts wrong. First you should ask what Android doesn't which Linux does. For one it doesn't force you to open the terminal to do your work. It doesn't force you to compile your software you simply get your apk and run it. And if you uninstall it you can be sure that it's gone, no bullshit left on the device only exception is a single folder, the downloads folder, and other folders only if you gave the permission. Which is what Android does great which Linux doesn't. Permission management. It's easier than beating the first level of Mario Bros, which even 3 year old children manage to do. It also has awesome sandboxing, programm x wants to steal data from y? Well only if I give them both the permission to access the same folder. Well my file manager has access to all files that's not good. Well luckily I can deny Internet access with 4-5 touches. And I can even teach my dad how to do it. He will forget it in a month but at least not in 10 minutes.
@@jondo7680 Your response already starts wrong. Linux doesn't do a single one of those things. Android is a distro of Linux, other distros of Linux don't have Google behind them to pin all of the support on. Also my question was phrased to match your statement, not some lack of understanding.
@@stephensumpter5311 lol
i'm shocked by how ubuntu touch hasn't chnged much since 2013
it depends on how you define much. Some things went away, some improvements Canonical didn't finish were finished and integrated, new ways of supporting more hardware were developed, way more hardware is supported, more apps exist, a new app store run by the community exists, it's based on 20.04 (huge change from being based on an OS that used a different init system), etc...
indian customer support 😂😂😂 good one. this is coming from indian btw
@@pessimistic_optimism Thank you!😂
I'm also Indian. This cracked me up 😂
I like the ui. I would love to install one once it has lots of downloadable apps.
It would be even cooler if you made some of those apps ;)
looks like it has potential, but it's clearly not polished. perhaps figuring out how to run .apks directly into linux at native performance would be the game changer. And making sure the battery performance is better or equal to Android. Android is also open source so there is no reason to switch to linux at the moment. They need a game changing feature
Running APKs is not a goal, the goal is to do different. However, you can install Waydroid and run android apps there. Ubuntu Touch main feature is convergence, and not spying on users, and allow people who participate on the project to contribute to the definition of its future.
What programming language is used to build apps on this ubuntu platform? Is it same as android? i.e Java/kotlin
If they want a huge ecosystem of apps, those are the languages they should pick
Probably QML + python / Cpp since it uses QT, but any desktop app runs
It's not at all the same as android. The UI is called Lomiri (previously called Unity 8), which is built using the QT Framework. Large portions of the UI are made with C++, but also some Python. You can also make apps with QML, HTML, Javascript, Go, and Rust.
Wow, it doesn’t look like it was stolen from apple, definitely step forward
Great channeI, subscribed. I love the idea of having traditional linux on a phone. Too bad in my country many banks and essential government services get very inconveninet without Android or iOS devices. You're quite handsome btw
@@WolfiiDog13 Thank you bro!😄
Ubuntu touch is promising
It’s not bad tbh!
You can try waydroid and box86/64 to run steam or other games?
I will look into it!
Do you have an OF?
@@moblue2899 Making one 1000 subs!
I thought it was a video from 2014 lol
Only the quality 😂
I invite you to test Replicant OS.
Until it has proper app support it's just wasted resources
That is true!
"Until it has proper app support it's just wasted resources" "Until it's good enough for people to want to develop for it'll never catch on" People don't seem to understand the chicken and the egg problem.
7:50 you need to type *cd Pictures* (capital P), linux is case sensitive, to go up directory type cd ..
Thanks bro!
Gesture based navigation across all apps is too much to ask of ubuntu devs (its not even fluid systemwide on iOS) - its way harder to implement and is many more lines of code. Use 2/3 button navigation instead, and Ubuntu Touch would run well on decade old phones. Power management would be only remaining issue.
I like the 3 button navigation over anything tbf. Even as a current iOS user I miss it dearly 🥲
Anything is better than android.
Idk about that
No
You bought a phone made by Google, searched Google, and uploaded this video to a platform owned by Google. Mission failed, we'll get em next time. 😂
Cringe
Yes, google owns everything. That doesn't mean we shouldn't try to reclaim the little bits of privacy that we can from them instead of just being lazy like you and not doing anything.
As an arch user I should just say this is bloated and move on...
With the UA-cam Music app that is probably just a webapp.
Can i ssh into it?
If you enable sshd. However, that's not a good idea in most cases.
Honestly speaking, Ubuntu Touch is not a bad OS. It has all the basics you need and Waydroid works pretty well for most android apps from what understand. However, the only thing preventing me from switching is the missing support for Voice over LTE. This is really important because you can no longer call on UT since the 2/3G towers have went out of service(in the US) and you need to be able to call over LTE. Hopefully UBports is able to solve the VoLTE issue soon! You can alternatively use a sip provider (a forum member recommends Jmp Chat) with Linphone and make calls like that, but you won't be able to make emergency calls which is a pretty big deal breaker for me personally Edit: Apparently there are SIP providers that do offer the ability to call emergency services.
Can I install telegram or APK files on it?
Good question! Stay tuned for my future video!
If you use Waydroid, you should be able to run most apps on UT. However from what I understand, how well it works may differ from device to device
I think it's essentially Ubuntu so you should to able to install telegram desktop package but Idk it will work or not
@@pokewayamv9950 If I recall correctly, in the app market for UT there should be a client for Telegram there
Apk is android native file, it won't work on Linux without translation/emulation layer.
Android is developed and owned by Google.
Yes it is!
