Reference Devices

Reference devices include smartphones, tablets, and laptops that are the primary focus of the core UBports development team. While not guaranteed, these devices have a higher chance of working smoothly with each update and upgrade.


If you need a reliable daily driver and our pre-installed featured devices don't meet your needs, take a look at our reference devices for a dependable Ubuntu Touch experience.

Built by developers for early adopters. If you value community development and you don't want to use a translation layer to run Ubuntu Touch on devices built for Android, Pine64 offers phones and tablets built to run natively with mainline Linux.

NOTE: This hardware is years old. We cannot guarantee a smooth experience and we recommend our Pre-installed devices if you're looking for the easiest and most up-to-date devices.
