Careful my guy, it’s a trap!

Yes, it is. I mean, GrapheneOS is the gold standard for privacy&security, but even stock Pixel is a good step up. Think of it like this: on stock Pixel, only Google is tracking you, not Google + Samsung, or Google + Xiaomi. Just Google. It’s guaranteed to be a step up from all other Android phones, stock or not.
Good take. IMO, lots of people in the privacy community need to hear this take.
Vanadium for when I need to log in and Cromite for daily browsing.
Mullvad and Brave on desktop. Vanadium and Cromite/Brave on Android.
Nice, I got a renewed one from Amazon this year for $330. It was as good as new, no scratches whatsoever, battery health was at 99% and still had 3 months of warranty left.
It’s too expensive for me. Not worth it when a used Pixel is way cheaper, has way better hardware and has support for GrapheneOS.
I live in a country in that South China Sea region and I hope mainland China magically disappears or something.

Too expensive for me. I understand why, like the whole being “fair” thing and all but those specs are not good enough for 700€.
I alternate between Ringke Fusion and Caseology Parralax.
Excellent hardware, mediocre software, too expensive. To elaborate on the software, long software update is good. And the iPhone is certainly smooth. However it requires too many workarounds for/straight up can’t do what I would consider basic features on Android. And it certainly isn’t bug free. For the average user though, I don’t think they care about any of that, they only care about the brand, which is why the iPhone still sells so well.
I’ll wait a couple generations and then buy one for GrapheneOS.
If you’re considering rooting, I’d say don’t. Rooting is like blowing a hole in the wall of a castle. It breaks the Android security model. A rooted device is insecure and cannot be made secure no matter how many Magisk modules you flash. Do not root a device you do anything important on.
I discovered privacyguides.net. good website.
Off - topic but I’m really liking these threads.
Replying with a sarcastic comment.
I have a Pixel 6 Pro. Different phone, but same generation and same SoC so the experience should probably large be the same. I had zero problems installing GrapheneOS. The web installer was much easier to use than recoveries like TWRP. Performance is really good, fast and smooth. Can’t tell the difference between GOS and stock. Hope that answers your questions.
