        Hey

        I check https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/ and see that Oneplus One (bacon) and Bq Aquaris M10 FHD (frieza) have best support.

        I decide for the tablet option and see that this device not sold in "our" country

        https://www.toppreise.ch/produktsuche?q=Bq+Aquaris+&cid=

        thanks

          Hi, what is your question here ?
          Ubuntu Touch compatible devices can be hard to find depending on your country.

          The PinePhone is not fully supported yet, but it's going pretty well.
          If you're looking for a new phone (as opposed as a used one)

          BTW, I moved the thread to off topic as you don't have a technical issue.

            Hi, what is your question here ?

            How to buy a device fully supported?
            I am normal user, I can't debug code

            I wish a new phone or tablet.

              This is just the good day to ask for it.
              See this news update : https://ubports.com/blog/1/post/271

              So this an option but the phone is not yet at its best.
              It's still work in progress. But give it time and it will improve to give a very good Ubuntu Touch experience.

              For other devices, like OPO, Nexus 5, ... you can mostly find used devices.
              I don't know the best way to find them in Switzerland, but maybe @stanwood knows trusted way to buy.
              Of course there's always ebay and other marketplaces.

                @AppLee Thanks to mention me 😉 In CH you can regulary check www.anibis.ch or www.ricardo.ch for second hand smartphones. By my side I bought my EU 32GB Nexus 5 (reconditioned quite as new + unlocked) on aliexpress for CHF. 101.- free shipping + Tax incl. There're at this time about 80 pc available. Delivery time: 3 to 4 weeks.

                  @Conner Me and my wife are using Nexus 5 on daily basis. I bought two NEW items on eBay and they are still available there. We also have NEW BQ M10 HD (cooler) and it's still also available on eBay.

                  The downside of new Nexus 5, however, is that it's quite old and I had to replace original battery (made on January of 2014) after two months of usage. Another known issue is it's power button that may cause a boot loop year or two later.
