If it's a must, have a look at the Cudy TR3000, it's $13 cheaper anyway.
Flashing the Cudy it is currently a PITA though.

It runs Gl.iNet's version of OpenWRT, which in this case, is based on a 3 y.o release. and have nothing to do with the real thing.
The situation for the SFT1200 is even worse, GL.inet already dropped the support, and it will never get proper OpenWRT, since the SoC used in it, isn't supported by Linux.
My application was for a cruise ship sharing wifi and to a lesser extent at a hotel, where both have captive portals. I needed also something portable that could run on a battery and small enough to put in a pocket or jacket pocket. I tried many of the GLinet devices including the one posted. I ended up with the GL-A1300. Has OpenVPN, Wireguard, EAP support and is low powered, able to use an Anker USB-C battery pack. I tried the Beryl AX (no EAP support but can run OpenWRT with EAP now, at the time it did not, also uses more battery, but faster, older software), Slate AX (old software, 4A nonstandard power),
Been very happy with the GL-A1300. Worked great. Its not the fastest if you want an at home router, but for travel where the speeds are already limited, it is fast enough even with wireguard on. (OpenVPN is a bit slow). Easy to configure, dont need to install OpenWrt and runs solid.

Also, the GL.iNet GL-SFT1200 (Opal), which I'm using and runs very well, is on OpenWRT. I've also read this thread, https://forum.openwrt.o

Note the "based on" statement.

It is basically OpenWRT with modified UI, to get native OpenWRT some proprietary driver(internal NAND?) won't work, I tried it out once, you can take the dangerous route of compiling it yourself however it get techy very quickly.
Not sure about this new device though, if the wireless part works 100% with native OpenWRT it would be well worth the price.
It's WIP though https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/14950
