Project Anakin
The Project "Anakin" - Phase 1 of PINE64 Smartphone "PinePhone" Development Kit
Project Anakin is a marsh-up kit for the PINE64 Smartphone dubbed "PinePhone". It is used in the early stages of development as a starting point for affiliated projects.
PinePhone development has been broken down into three distinct phases:
- First phase - Project Anakin
 - Second phase - purpose-built development kit code named "Don't be evil". It will be introduced at FOSDEM 2019
 - Lastly, the third phase which is the PinePhone itself - scheduled to be released in Q3 2019 (pending on software development).
 
The Anakin kit consists of following components:
- SoPine Module
 - SoPine Model A baseboard
 - Pine A64 Wifi/BT module
 - 16GB eMMC module
 - 5 Mega Piixel CMOS Camera Sensor
 - 7" Touch Screen LCD Panel
 - Playbox Enclosure
 - Lithium Ion Battery case (note: battery not included, can accommodate 1-3 pieces of 18650 size Lithium Ion batter. In general, one is good enough)
 - Quectel EC20 R2.1 LTE Module (note: The SIM tray design not distinguish polarity well and all reverse slot in)
