Hi, As my workplace only offers Samsung or Iphone, I am getting a new one after new years. Here I am wondering what to do with my old one. I wanna play around with Linux phone os, but it just seems like the different OS' doesn't work great with different hardware (or not at all).

I was wondering if someone in here might be able to guide me in the right direction. Thank you.

Kind regards Buller

I don't think any mobile Linux distro has been ported to that particular phone so far. I just did a quick check of all the major options (postmarket, Ubuntu Touch, sailfish community ports, droidian) and none of these list your device.
