Of course the real question on everyone's mind is "does it run Xonotic?" and the answer is, quite well for a low end phone! For this —as opposed to handling GTK UI heh— the tier of the GPU matters more than the generation, fwiw.

Phosh.mobi @ FOSDEM 2026
As you may know from our announcement, Phosh.mobi members were present at FOSDEM 2026.
We had a great time in Brussels and with things in the rear-view mirror, let’s share some of our experiences from the event.
## Devroom
As is tradition by now, we helped organize and run the FOSS on Mobile devroom, which took place on Saturday. And we’re happy to say that it was a great success! So much so, that the devroom was always packed with a queue of people outside itching to get in.
This year, we partnered up with the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) folks for a full day devroom and we split the programme in roughly three parts:
* Topics interesting to AOSP
* Topics interesting to Mainline Linux
* Topics interesting to both
All recordings have been made available now, so if you missed the live-stream or didn’t make it into the room, you can now rewatch them.
Here are a number of recommendations:
* Collabora Office Can Finally Run on Mobile Linux
* Mainline kernel for Fairphones - 2026 update
* Phosh: What’s new and where are we going?
* Running mainline Linux on the Unisoc-based Jolla C2
* The Linux Phone App Ecosystem (2026)
* UnifiedPush - Push notifications. Decentralized and Open Source
* postmarketOS: Reliability in 2026
Thanks to FOSDEM, our co-organizers and all the volunteers helping out to once more make this a memorable experience.
## Booth
Apart from devroom, we were also invited to the Linux on Mobile booth where you could find us throughout the weekend. We shared the booth with Sailfish OS and AsteroidOS (thanks for having us!).
Next to us you could find Furi Labs, postmarketOS, F-Droid and /e/OS and the Free Android World forming a formidable phone focussed community.
Our booth was packed with people and it was a great pleasure to talk about Phosh and Mainline Linux with everyone who came by.
People seemed genuinely impressed by the variety of phones that are able to run Mainline Linux these days. The most common question was for recommendation which phones work best _right now_ as well as which phones look promising in the future.

I am very proud to say that I managed to #degoogle, install and run @postmarketos.org on a Pixel 3a 👌 And it works with #Phosh interface! Sure, still quite rough around the edges and not ready as a daily driver, but still impressive having a fully fledged Linux system running on mobile! #LinuxMobile
