I would love to use PostmarketOS as my daily driver but my Pinephone CE isn’t really giving me the battery life I need to make it happen. I am looking at what phones I can get my hands on in Canada that would be better suited. So far the OnePlus 6T seems to be my best option. I can’t get the Shift6mq or the Poco F1 shipped here. Any suggestions if battery life is my main need ? I take my phone off the charger at 11am and don’t get home until close to midnight with no way to charge while at work.

      Not much? It’s courriers (UPS, FedEx, DHL, etc) who charge exorbitant fees, but most sellers on Ali ship via regular post. Canada Post charges a small fee, like 5$ for brokerage, plus regular HST. That would turn a 25$ item to around $34. A lot less than the Bezos Fun Train markup. But generally speaking items around 20$ are exempt anyway.
