But several months after the review, a reader commented he could install Fedora 39 on the Blackview MP80 and that it “worked like a charm“.

When we were 16 years old my friend and I spray-painted our keyboards in camouflage colors. We had just seen Hackers, wanted to copy what we saw, and – yes, 16 years old – didn’t think much further than (1) get spray paint (2) spray-paint the keyboard. Only after the paint dried did we realise we can’t read the letters on the keys anymore and, well, guess we’ll have to now type blind.
Up until then I had been typing with two to five fingers and was reasonably fast, but I still had to peek at the keyboard when typing numbers or special characters. Now, with a camouflaged keyboard, I not only was able to type undetected in the woods should such a need arise but also learned to type without a lot of looking down. Well, mostly. Sometimes I still had to tilt my head and squint and try to make out a letter beneath the camouflage. The spray paint also slowly came off, but not on the upper rows, where I needed the letters on the keys the most.
