What if your smartphone didn't force you to use regular Android or iOS?

Meet the Volla Phone Quintus — a privacy-focused smartphone that gives you something incredibly rare: a real choice of operating system. You can use Android-based Volla OS for better app compatibility or go full Linux with Ubuntu Touch.

The Quintus packs a MediaTek Dimensity 7050 processor, 8GB RAM, 256GB storage, a 6.78-inch 120Hz AMOLED display, 5G connectivity, a 50MP main camera and 66W fast charging.

But running Linux on a smartphone still comes with compromises. Ubuntu Touch support has limitations involving features such as dual-SIM cellular data and experimental VoLTE, and the Quintus currently remains on the Ubuntu Touch 20.04 branch instead of the latest Ubuntu Touch release.

So is the Volla Phone Quintus the Linux smartphone we've been waiting for, or is mobile Linux still only for enthusiasts?

Watch the video and let me know: would you replace Android with Ubuntu Touch?
