However I'm going to order the pinephone.

Thanks.

I don't think it is.
The case can be found in Pine64's store, but I read something about purchasing only the phone...
You should check information from the Pine store.

I guess with the camera sort of working, that was the needed milestone?

Quote:

The Ubuntu Touch image that will ship on the PinePhone will be highly functional, but not necessarily 'daily driver'ready - depending of course on your requirements. It will support all core phone functionality, such as outgoing and incoming voice calls, SMS texts and LTE. In addition, it will have GPS location and GPU hardware acceleration for the system and its apps. That said, some features - notably camera support, battery life conservation and USB Host [that means plug and play for perhipherals such as mice] will still be under active development at the time of shipping.

I own a braveheart edition and a few weeks ago, it was still far from usable as a primary device. I guess the factory has to have the image to be flashed at least a week before shipping the phones so... That would mean one month and a half to have the image ready? That feels pretty short.

I read that some guy managed to use a screen protector designed for iPhone.
I'll update if I learn which model is compatible.
You can DIY a flip case using the available soft or hard cases.

@PINE64 Are there any news when accessories such as flip cases and screen glass protectors will be available for PinePhone? Me and my wife plan to use PinePhones on daily basis as a replacement to our Nexus 5 phones, and this kind of accessories are very important for us.
