Since there are so many distros, it is honestly hard to keep up with (even if you are involved with the commuity). In (very) broad strokes (i.e. if you use a well supported distro), you can expect:

- Calls and SMS seem stable, even when the phone is asleep

- Battery life Screen on time is measured in hours, and sleep time is measured in ~1 day

- Anbox is usable, but not easy to install

- convergance is stable

- MMS is non-functional: https://sr.ht/~anteater/mms-stack/

- GPS/location is only usable if you have a GPS signal

- Camera is pretty stable (though the front camera had a green tint)

Which distribution are you using? (Asking because there are differences in feature support and reliability .)
I tried PostmarketOS, Mobian, and Manjaro.

PostmarketOS edge had Plasma Mobile 5.20.3, which was considered to be the latest plasma mobile at the time.
