FP2 is the second device on the "promoted" devices page. That feels like a recommendation?

Doesn't support one of the most interesting features to me in UBports, which is display output for convergence.

The FP2 is a very old device lacking some features and probably got recommendation back then because other devices were worse. https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io/device/fp2 Otherwise I'd also could have recommended the Nexus5.
On FOSDEM 2023 Ubports developers didn't show off this old phone, either.
You're overestimating the Volla phone and Fairphone, 1st one still doesn't support VoLTE which I heard is essential in the US, 2nd one isn't even recommended by UT.
Either go with an Xperia + SailfishOS if you want more than a toy or Pinephone + PmOs if you love to tinker on your daily driver. Both have VoLTE support.
