@moem SoC stands for System on a Chip, this is (more or less) the equivalent of the processor on the PCs. In any case, thank you for having answered my questions.
So if anybody else has some experience on building, please let me know, thanks !

Hi @harshentrepren
Your question is a bit misplaced.
This forum is about the mobile OS Ubuntu Touch.
You can find the list of supported devices here at : https://devices.ubuntu-touch.io
As for the price it will depend on your country and what you have access to as some people pointed out in this forum.
BTW I moved your post to "Off Topic" as it is about "different OS" and not specifically Ubuntu-Touch.
@alexandrosalpha There is a lot of time effort and work involved in porting a device to UT and it is not a service to be requested. If you want a device ported the best thing is to give it a go yourself. There is plenty of helpand advice available but not an on request porting service.
Please see https://forums.ubports.com/topic/2068/halium-first-steps
and https://forums.ubports.com/topic/206/will-you-port-to-device-x
Its a community that started or has emerged around the porting of windows 10/11 onto the nokia lumia 950.
Now there are a handful of snapdragon (especially 845) devices supported.
In my understanding the key was some sort of hack to get a uefi running on those chips. Also if i am right the drivers are reverse engineered or other known drivers were modified. I am not sure about the documentation of those.
The website also has a chapter dedicated to linux but it seems quite empty.

@jhayar0719 said in [Request] Redmi note 8 Pro Android 11 Begonia/Global Rom:
how can i reflash the stock rom ?
Sorry, I have no knowledge of that. I have never flashed Android on any phone.
Firstly, Termux is not an emulator. It is simply a container based distribution of tools on Android, and all the packages in Termux are built to run against the Android bionic libc.
No, it is not a reasonable way to run any graphical applications built for other systems, and so it does not make sense to try and run Ubuntu Touch (a complete mobile operating system) in some hacky way under Termux.
@kismartont Nexus 7 2012 grouper rev. E1565 run ubuntu, debian, arch, opensuse with xfce4, mate, phosh, gnome-shell now. So why did you still want it run ubtouch?
@kugiigi That makes sense. I had the original release on it a long time ago, then wiped it for LineageOS (Android 7.1.2) with a decent SD card and a lot of swapping.
Now - I cannot find the original release based on Ubuntu 13.x anymore sadly!
Was hoping to be able to use a new version... or even find the original ROM to flash haha.
Unity7 and more so Unity8 should have revolutionized the computing experience. We all knew where we would find the menus, no matter whar application, no pushing the mouse from one corner to the next just to start an app. Open the main menu left corner down the bottom. The apps are at the top. The one that you are looking for is usually on page 3, even though you're using it daily. The save button is on the top right whereas the cancel button is at the top left. It is an ergonomical nightmare. Unity is the reason why I made the decision for Ubuntu.

@domubpkm The majority of devices are eol after two years, i.e. they lose support from the manufacturer for Android updates and security patches even though they are still viable hardware wise. LineageOS, UT and others fill the gap to stop these devices going to landfill and quite rightly so.
The Nexus 4 is a great example, a nine year old device that still going with UT and has a really good battery as some are dated 2013 and still bhold a good charge.
