Yikes. My G6 is pretty snappy. I don't have too much to compare it to, but it's noticably faster than other phones I've used, especially Samsung S5 and J7 and S3, iPhone SE and HTC Hero.
You're not going to get Google on a PinePhone without some work. All my old phones that I have removed Google from are very usable, so I expect a PinePhone would be too. But not having one, I can't really say. However, everything I've read about it tells me the answer to your "Will this work" is a firm "no." Not yet. The software that is available (does not come from Pine64) is not ready for prime time.
