Enough Phone, a startup founded by Brennan Jordan, Austin Boer, and Will Stults, launched a Kickstarter campaign for a compact 5.3-inch smartphone with a user-replaceable 3,500mAh battery, a MediaTek Dimensity 7500 chipset, an 8GB RAM configuration, and a 50-megapixel Sony camera sensor. The device will run either stock Android or OdysseyOS, a minimalist operating system the founders previously built for their refurbished-phone business, Sleke. Within a day of launching, the campaign had already passed the halfway mark toward its $250,000 funding goal.
