Hello, I am considering de-googling my mobile experience. It seems like Samsung has bad security on their phones, which is why GrapheneOS is not available on Samsung phones, I guess. Ironically, google pixel phone is supposed to be the best fit for GrapheneOS.

So anyway, should I switch ? Ideally, I want to keep my phone. But my phone is quite old at this point, so I can consider buying a new phone. If I buy one, which one should I get?

Also, I heard call and mobile data does not work well on GrapheneOS and the like. How bad is it?

    Buy a pixel a or an older flagship.

    8 pro, virtually identical to the 9 pro, is like $400 renewed on Amazon. It’ll be more powerful than your S8, but not that powerful overall. Not sure how it compares to an A series, worth looking in to.

    GrapheneOS is the most stable OS I’ve ever used. I haven’t ever had any problems with it that wasn’t a result to its security features.
