So which on of these are better for my pixel 7a if we consider these:
i dont care about leaving the bootloader unlocked
i want customization to my os as long as this is possible
i hate google so i dont want any google things or google spyware (i dont use any google service)
i need push notifications for some apps (maybe microg or sandboxed google play services)
i dont use esim or google pay so idc about these
i need A LOT of privacy and security to my data
i wanna use google camera as it is in stock rom but i dont want google spy shit. if i use a firewall would be ok?
Note: i can sacrifice locking the bootloader and customization for my privacy/security/not having spyware on my phone
Thanks in advance!
Unfortunately pixel phones are too expensive for a phone. I went with a Galaxy A34 which is good, but no graphene os for me
not just too expensive, but designed to be hard to repair too. just look up the ifixit disassembly guide, it’s horrible
Paid $150 for a Pixel 5. Pixel 7 is $200.
I don’t waste money on new phones, or new cars.
Bought Pixel 7 a new for 335 EUR. Refurbished is another option.
Interesting, I paid the same for my phone. But I will keep it five years so it will be a less cheap pixel then
