Talk:Comparison of open-source mobile phones

Merging with List of open-source mobile phones
I understand the desire to merge as there is some duplication. A merge would also make it more obvious when a phone was added as a row in one table and not the other (e.g., Fairphone). However, the tables have different purposes. One gives basic information like the date of release and whether it is current, the other gives a detailed feature comparison. Joining the tables will increase the number of columns making what should be a simple table in the "List of Phones" article more difficult read. Please continue to cross-link in the See Also section instead of merging. Thanks. Ben (talk) 18:10, 23 September 2021 (UTC)


 * I split it off because it would have been unwieldy and it seemed the best way to keep it legible. Expanding it and keeping it all up-to-date is a challenge; any suggestions for better formats welcome. HLHJ (talk) 03:45, 12 November 2021 (UTC)


 * The List of open-source mobile phones article has an introduction ("This is a list of mobile phones with open-source operating systems."). Without that people, especially contributors will not know the criteria that says if a phone can be added in the table or not. Though maybe both articles should be renamed to something like that ("comparison of mobile phones with free software and open source operating systems") because there is also Open_source_hardware, so people might think it refers to that instead.
