I used to have a UniFi gateway for the nice traffic visualization but Ubiquiti lost my trust when they started running telemetry without consent and I’ve gone back to an OpenBSD’s box as router, thus this device does little for me.
I’m looking forward to the GL.Inet MUDI 7, their first 5G hotspot, which should be running an open-source and hackable OS unlike most hotspots:
I have a little WIFI-6 era GL.iNet travel router and it is fantastic, really like their software and hardware.

For both home and travel routers OpenWRT is far and away superior to Unifi gear. Usability, configurability, and especially security.
What makes them more so secure? Configurability I can see, usability maybe, as Ubiquiti is all about simplification and ease of use.

Ubiquidropped all cloud requirements, but I am not sure what you are referring too here.
I haven't paid attention for a while, but this definitely hurt their brand massively: https://www.theregister.com/2019/11/07/ubiquiti_networks_pho...
Pretty sure that's what OP is referring to.
Exactly.
I’ve been waiting for one of these with built in eSIM support
This one has eSIM and dual physical SIM support.
I’m really struggling to understand the SIM side, the page talks about 5G while tethered to a phone?

This is incorrect. No sim support here, and no cellular modem either :-)
