I can't speak for Apollo users, but as a user of Infinity and Slide, one of the best features was no ads

good read. I hope more villages in Georgia and Armenia will do the same. I lived in a small village in Georgia in 2012 and had mobile internet at 5 gigabytes a month. I had to choose between video calls with family, downloading/streaming for entertainment and always had to think about how much data I'm consuming. I was checking my data balance multiple times a day sometimes.
Things have improved since then. There are some wired providers in some areas, but the infrastructure still isn't there in many places.
I guess it depends on how you rank the importance of each of those. For me, I can get an SMS from my bank with a 2FA code to login (I know, less secure), so I don't need a specific app and can use the website. Hotspot isn't very important for me, but it does work(when my modem worked.) I'd also move bluetooth audio lower on importance to me. Can't argue with telephony being on top. I wonder how it is with pmOS on Oneplus 6? I have a pinephone, but the modem is dead/not recognized or something anymore, so now it's just a mini tablet that I always leave at home.
