May my experience serve as example for other users who might try in future.
I'm using Pixel Experience 11. It's as fast as the de-bloated stock ROM.
LineageOS 17.1 seemed the best imo, very responsive, and I'm used with the LineageOS. I removed it because I was not able to install Gapps or Magisk.
.
It should be no problem runing everything from Android 13 and below on this phone, although some GSIs with very nice layouts and large animations need a reboot or two before everything is loaded into memory, and becom fast and responsive.
When it comes to lineage 17 to 20, there are definitely no problems on this phone I have tested. But to find the right GSI for your needs, you need to look at the designation of the different GSIs.
b = a/b and v = vanilla (no gapps included) and S = superuser included
That means you tried to use a 'Vanilla' version, with 'superuser' pre-installed, which prevents the installation of MAGISK, when SU already exists with in the GSI.
You probably need to download and flash 'bgn' version. It comes preinstall with gapps, and you can install Magisk and everything else you want on your phone.

b = a/b
a = a-only
g = gapps
o = gapps-go
v = vanilla (no gapps included)
f = floss (free & open source apps instead gapps)
N = no superuser
S = superuser included
The most suitable GSI ROM for Oukitel WP5 Pro:
Requires A/B ROM instalation file type and Android 10 and up.
Suitable are files with key "arm64-bgN" or "arm64-bgS" in filename. "g" if you want use Google APPS.
b = a/b
g = gapps
N = no superuser
S = superuser included

And of course to tweak the GSI according to your needs:
