The PinePhone is an inexpensive smartphone designed to run Linux and other free and open source software. The Pip-Boy is a fictional wrist-worn computer from the Fallout series of video games. And the PineBoy3000 is a 3D printed wrist-mount for the PinePhone that lets you wear the smartphone like a Pip-Boy.

Is there any practical reason to do that? Probably not. But if you want one anyway, you can find the design files at Thingiverse, allowing you to 3D print your own PineBoy3000.

PineBoy3000 creator 5ilver has shared files for a 3D printed enclosure, top and button panels, and buttons for accessing the phone’s volume and power buttons without removing it from the wrist mount. There’s also a cut-out for the USB port, which will allow you to charge the phone while it’s mounted.

You will need a few screws to fasten the parts in place, plus some sort of straps to hold the whole thing to your wrist.

There are certainly simpler ways to put open hardware on your wrist. PinePhone maker Pine64 also sells a PineTime smartwatch for about $27. There are several open source operating systems available for the watch, but it’s a smaller, significantly less powerful device than a PinePhone and it lacks some of the features you’d want in a “real” Pip-Boy, like a camera.

Many of next year’s flagship phones will likely feature Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, a 4nm chip that Qualcomm promises will bring faster CPU and graphics performance along with efficiency improvements.

But Motorola is the first company to officially introduce one of the flagship phones: the Moto Edge X30 will feature a 6.7 inch FHD+ OLED display with a 144 Hz refresh rate, up to 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, and Qualcomm’s most powerful smartphone processor to date.

Motorola unveiled the Edge X30 during an event in China, where it will go on sale December 15 for around $500 and up. There’s no word on if or when the phone will be available in other countries or if any specs will change. But here’s what we know about the Chinese version so far:
