European companies Murena and Volla have introduced a new tablet designed primarily for users who take privacy seriously and don’t want to share their data with Google or other corporations.

The device, called the Murena Volla Tablet, is now available for order and runs a modified operating system — /e/OS — one of the most well-known “de-Googled” versions of Android.

What Is /e/OS and Why Is It Considered “Anti-Spy”?

/e/OS is an open-source Android fork with all Google services fully removed — including Google Play Services, the Play Store, built-in tracking, and telemetry.

Instead, it comes with its own application marketplace called App Lounge, which offers both open-source apps and adapted versions of popular applications without embedded tracking. According to the developers, the system does not send user data to third-party servers. Any cloud service requests can be routed through /e/OS proxy servers — and only if the user chooses to enable them.

Compatibility with most Android apps is preserved. Through microG and built-in tools, users can even run apps that typically require Google services. However, the developers recommend using fully open-source alternatives whenever possible.

Murena Volla Tablet Specifications

  • Display:6-inch, 2560×1600 resolution
  • Processor: MediaTek Helio G99 (8 cores, up to 2.2 GHz)
  • Memory: 12GB RAM + 512GB storage (expandable via microSD)
  • Battery: 10,000 mAh
  • Cameras: 13MP rear + 5MP front
  • Connectivity: 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.2
  • Extras: Stereo speakers, USB-C 2.0, 3.5mm headphone jack (in select configurations)

The tablet delivers solid performance for everyday tasks — from document work and web browsing to light video editing and gaming at medium settings. The Helio G99 remains a reliable chip capable of handling most 2026 use cases smoothly.

Price and Availability

The Murena Volla Tablet is available for order through the official website at $798 (approximately €730 depending on exchange rates). A protective folio case is included in the box.

Shipping is available across most European countries and selected other regions. Direct shipping to Russia and CIS countries is not currently supported, though third-party forwarding services may offer a workaround.

Who Is This Tablet For?

This is not a mainstream product aimed at everyone. The Murena Volla Tablet is designed for users who:

  • Avoid Google services and prioritize maximum privacy
  • Are willing to accept minor inconveniences (manual push notification setup, some apps not available out of the box)
  • Want an alternative to standard Android tablets from companies like Samsung, Lenovo, or Xiaomi

For casual users who mainly watch videos and browse social media, the difference compared to a typical Android tablet will mostly be noticeable in the absence of Google ads and a cleaner, less cluttered interface.

In Short

Murena and Volla have introduced the 12.6-inch Murena Volla Tablet priced at $798, running the privacy-focused /e/OS — Android without Google services or tracking.

Key specs include the Helio G99 processor, 12GB/512GB memory configuration, a 10,000 mAh battery, 4G connectivity, and Wi-Fi 6 support.

This is a solid mid-range tablet built for users who want to step away from Big Tech ecosystems without sacrificing everyday performance.
