On the positive side the PMOS device wiki for Fairphone 4 is accurate to what he discovered i.e. audio, battery and calls not yet fully working:

I gotta donate more to postmarket os to help fill in the usability gaps.
Their funding recently increased by 25% from 2025 to 2026!
This is a bit unfair. He installed a different OS than the one the phone came with. The title suggest something else.
Installing some other half-done OS on any other android phone will often get the same nasty results.
This video makes it seem like Linux phones suck ass. And he is absolutely not helping. Thanks for being part of the problem, not the solution…
He is bringing attention to an obscure os. Not many big youtubers even know that pmos exists.
Fair point. Even bad publicity is publicity.
Review seems more for entertainment purposes; fellow seems to know more about Linux but chooses to take potshots instead.
Just what he does, he’s funny. Check out his other videos.
That’s kind of his thing though. He does the same for corporate products too (recently, see Macbook Neo being the Macbook No)
“Preferences? Yes, I would prefer this not to look like ass, please.”
💀
Yeah… That’s not even funny. That guy makes very cringy videos.
“Subsceyebe tudaaay”
Wait again?
This one also has a super negative clickbait title but everything he showed was actually functional and was shown in a better light than even the early days linux phone enthusiasts would ever try to convey. Fucking bizarre youtuber, this guy.
That was surprisingly hilarious. I mean the guys normally funny but this one made me laugh out loud several times
fun x linux got me
It’s almost ready for daily driving! I didn’t realize how good it had gotten
The audio issues the FP5 has should also be fixed in the next release.
The biggest issue I have with PostmarketOS is their documentation for new users is horrendous.
I tried installing it on a 2012 Nexus 7 and couldn’t get past the jargon.
14:06 I bursted out laughing at that terrible linux video quality with the rock music.
Tbh I really disliked how he made fun of it here, but I watched the Ubuntu / fairphone video he also posted and that really got me intrigued.
