I used to use a Hisense A9 eink smartphone on T-Mobile USA to run Android apps like Messenger, Kindle, Audible, Infinity for Reddit, Discord, koreader, and Hacker News via EinkBrowser. Here's a video of it in action https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvO9ScTdwz8

Unfortunately, T-Mobile USA no longer works on it, the band it used was refarmed to 5G and the Hisense A9 is 4G only. Now I use it wifi only. I hear the latest Bigme Hibreak eink phone still gets some USA LTE reception though.

The TLDR of eink phones: great for reading and text, terrible for videos and scrolling
