Keyboard phones - eviltoast

I recently discovered F(x)tec Pro1 X, Cosmo Communicator and the upcoming Astro Slide. Anyone having these devices? Wondering how it performs, how battery life, how the keyboard.

I know about supply issues, but I saw a few options on e-Bay.

Also looks like only F(x)tec Pro1 X supported by LineageOS.

    Battery is good for me. Lasts about a day and a half, almost two days through my standard use. Hasn’t dipped from that at all in the months I’ve had the phone. Super quick charge.

    Battery is replaceable as well. Haven’t done it myself but it’s looks very simple.

    Stock android. There was an initial issue I had with the physical keyboard mis-matching keys (I’d press one character, it’d type another) but there was a fix I found from the fxtec forum by disabling “Accessibility” permissions from “Android Assistant”.

      Thank you a lot! Have you tried LineageOS? I assume that this could fix your issue with connectivity.
