You can include your phone specific model if you want.
I just got a Samsung Galaxy S23, switching from an iPhone 11, because I kinda fear that Apple might turn evil and start banning apps from the app store. I mean I knew about how restrictive iOS was but I kinda just justified it by the increased security that I perceived it to be. But recent events made me realize a corporation can turn from mildly annoying to full-on evil very quickly. With Android, I have the option of avoiding the Google Play Store if they start to do weird things with it. So that’s my story, what about you?
I recommend grapheneos.org they offer regular and timely updates and offer a lot of very good security features such as contact/storage permission scopes (choose what contacts/files an app can access instead if being forced to allow all access or no access. I recommend at least giving it a look. I think you’ll love it if you want privacy and security. Have a look at the website, they offer way more than I have typed here. If you have questions I can answer them
