Value Proposition

The value proposition of a DIY smart phone must be low cost and infinite variability, with decent performance, and definite lifetime of service via replaceable parts. Different modules would be time lapse cameras, long battery life, solar operation, outdoor use, GoPro use, etc.

Example

  • Fairphone - phone with replaceable parts, fair trade - [1]
  • PiPhone - very basic, all DIY [2]
  • TyPhone - 2015 - [3]

  • Touchscreen, 640x480, $22 - [4]
