This is the best summary I could come up with:
The big update for this new model is a physical privacy switch that, when toggled on, disconnects the front and back cameras as well as the microphones.
Like the Murena One, the Murena 2 runs /e/OS, a fork of Android that doesn’t come with any Google apps, meaning the phone has custom apps for things like messaging and email.
The apps do come from Google Play, though if you don’t want to log in to a Google account to browse, you can access the marketplace anonymously to browse apps without tracking.
If you’re interested in backing Murena 2, you’re already too late for the “super early bird” and “duo early bird” (two phones) tiers that have estimated delivery dates of December.
But the standard “early bird” (for €399 / about $425) and “trio early bird” (three phones for €898 / about $957) tiers are still open, also with December delivery dates, while the presale tier (for €449 / about $478) offers an estimated delivery date of January 2024.
(There are a handful of more expensive tiers with December delivery dates and additional rewards if those are of interest, too.)
