Unfortunately KaiOS is not in great shape currently.

  I was looking at the phone mainly to use it as a 4G WiFi hotspot. What is wrong with KaiOS itself?

    KaiOS is struggling because business on the low-end segment is very hard. Which means that the technical side is cutting corners and you end up with a lacking product in important areas like security. (disclaimer: I worked there and left recently)

  It basically got pushed out by android as even very low end devices can now mostly run android sort of ok, right?

  It's not great at all. Convicted persons on parole are often disallowed from Internet use or smartphone ownership, so I see a lot of parolees with KaiOS flip-phones. The text entry is really, really horrible. That's probably the worst bit. The OS is pretty unintuitive and inconsistent in the UX. No-one is really developing apps for it as far as I know. It's definitely way worse than c. 2007 Nokia Symbian devices.
