#32Don't suppose anyone has seen in person one of the clones of the flipper zero that are on Aliexpress?

#33This rocks; the idea of flipperzero phoning home is the(my) primary concern given its use case
Edit for all replies: I'm coming from a place of lack of education; it's not that I know FZ is phoning home, it's that I know I wouldn't be able to tell if it was.

#34The LilyGo T-Embed CC1100 has similar hardware capabilities of the FlipperZero plus WiFi/bluetooth and runs the Bruce Pentest firmware all for under half the price of the flipper. The Bruce firmware works well on it but is not as polished as the flipper zero but both hardware and software are open source and easily modded.

#35Do this device and the other alternative mentioned (Capibara Zero) have the same level of software support as the Flipper Zero? I imagine the strong community behind the Flipper Zero is a big factor in its ongoing popularity.
It is exactly same problem like Raspberry Pi vs all other (cheaper, better) single board computers.

Also the Kiisu which is 1:1 with capabilities, plus a few more.

#38What is going on with the PCB? It looks like the soldered several dev boards to a big PCB. I can't think of a good reason to do this.

Some good reasons off the top of my head:
It’s easier to do pcb-layout wise. Allows you to re-use most components between board revisions, or when you’re done with the project. Probably less ewaste overall because of that.

I mean, yeah, why not? You take a bunch of off the shelf boards and put them together on the PCB as is. To make a PCB with all of the components on it would not be very DIY. That's a custom board and out of scope for DIY.
