Does it run a non-Google/free OS? My primary qualm about switching to a budget Android phone from an iPhone is the security and privacy aspect, which seems okay under Apple but atrocious under Google/Android.



I'm not aware of one. The bootloader is unlockable from ADB and there's a TWRP image for it though.


I couldn't find any ROMs and that SoC (mt6771) doesn't have upstream kernel support.


Though someone did piece together a LineageOS image for the Atom-L which uses the same SoC: https://cgit.typeblog.net/android/device/unihertz/Atom_L/
