"mostly" open source?

  I'm guessing there are a few proprietary binary blobs from vendors needed for components like the modem or similar.

  That wording is worrying me as well, I hope its not a closed UI thing like Jolla did with sailfishOS...

    I think that rockship chip still need proprietary blobs in the kernel. It is very probable that the model chip is using proprietary blobs/drivers too. If this is the case, that doesn't make it less free than most laptops on which people install linux on.

    There is a blob for the Mali GPU that I think does some task scheduling stuff.
