@dubstar_04@fosstodon.org Our development rodmap includes full support of USB-C. Displayport over alt-mode, USB3, OTG and so forth will make it to dawnOS.

@me The requirements of 5G connectivity are technically demanding at the moment. This includes power consumption, number of antennas, module size, etc. Supporting it for the current hardware would add a layer of complexity to the current development rodmap, which is already packed. Nonetheless, as we move forward, we always revisit features for their value to our community.

@insl@tooting.ch The estimated price is still around the range of 599-799 USD. We will communicate release dates after hardware validation, which is expected to be before July this year.

Divine D Rev. 1.1: MainPCB Layout Complete.
The layout phase has wrapped and the boards are now in production.

Besides the changes previously mentioned here (https://docs.dawndrums.tn/blog/dd-rev1.1-arch), what's more making it into this revision:

- RK3172 LoRa module
- LG77L as a standalone GNSS receiver
- Three chip antenna for WiFi, Bluetooth and GNSS, with high efficiency
- Mechanical optimizations for a more compact 5.5" design.

More updates once the fab house delivers.

Watch Divine D. making a test call on Phosh. This was only to try the call application, power consumption and connectivity. There are many other scenarios for such a test, such as during low-power modes, running performance applications, audio quality, audio routing, bluetooth HFP mode.. We will be covering those as the hardware revisions and software improve.
