Meh, these phones use a MediaTek P23 which was released in 2017. Not only will it be slow, the source code for the kernel was never released by MediaTek. They'll likely be stuck with whatever ancient, unpatched version of Linux they initially launched with.

There is a misspelling in the homepage: "Sprinboard". The Screenshots have it spelled with a "g" Springboard

Can anyone recommend a Google-free AOSP based phone with solid specs? Looking to jump ship from iOS and want something privacy focused but flexible and functional.
