After the “original” BlackBerrys (pre-Android), which I greatly miss for their physical keyboards and battery life, I’ve been searching for a device that’s ideal for using a terminal on the go. I’m intrigued by foldable phones but fear they might disappoint (besides being extremely expensive and often having questionable cameras).

Does anyone have experience with them and know if it’s feasible to use a terminal app (like Termux) comfortably on these devices?

    @stefano@bsd.cafe GPD do devices in the UMPC category which might fit that use case well (the pocket). Newest model for about £500 or an older one used for half that. Or Mr Mobile released a BlackBerry inspired case with physical keys for iPhone.
