Anything interesting I could do with spare Android phones? (alien.top)

I have a couple Android phones with little resell value and I'm wondering what I could do with them on my spare time.

Not sure if this is the right sub to ask but figured it could be a good start to see if anyone here has done anything with phones.

Won't that be easily exploited when exposed to the Internet, considering the OS has not been updated for years?

No need to expose to the Internet. You can e.g. expose them to Home-Assistant/openHAB only, or VPN to your LAN then connect to them.
