Maybe that's just because it's cheap KaiOS devices.

Mobian is one of the 2 mobile distros I tried and I'd say I preferred it over Ubuntu Touch, but at tgat point it wasn't close to ready for that device. I'm curious to see how well it's performing nowadays but I no longer have access to the device (Redmi note 7)
