    just press the system button plus the assigned letter and I’m in the app I want.

    Oh, that would be excellent. You could even set them to be the same on desktop for equivalent applications.

    I think one of the Linux phones has a physical keyboard. That’ll likely be my choice if I can afford it when my current one stops being viable.

      It was excellent, it was the dream and I miss it every fucking day xD

      You had short press and long press of any letter so you pretty much had 52 user bindable shortcuts to open any app as well as perform system functions etc.

      I fear computing power and battery live of that Linux phone aren’t viable even at the time you buy it.
