Sure, it runs Android. What did people expect? They aren't going to build a custom system from scratch.

The appeal is the form factor

Are you making this custom ROM? Seems unlikely anyone else will. To what end? A cheap phone does much more with better feel and battery life.

It's just more ~~on a computer~~ with AI garbage.

No other device has the same form factor as far as I can tell. All of the influencers have single handedly screwed this company over.

The company screwed themselves by hyping a nothing burger. The influencers just helped unaware consumers to not fall for this scam.
