Hey there! i currently have a Samsung Galaxy A55 and i want to try one of the privacy focused phones. But idk which is the best i could try.

My findings:

  • Fairphone with /e/OS, but ive heard /e/OS is apparantly not that secure.
  • Google Pixel with GrapheneOS, but with this one I still need to buy from Google.
  • Linux phones, but I’m concerend they dont support all the apps i want to use.

that being said, can you use MicroG instead of Google Services for ALL apps? or does it only work for things like Revanced?

edit:

i also use a Samsung smartwatch with Google Wallet so would this still be possible with an alternate OS?

    I got a used Pixel 8 Pro at the beginning of the summer and have been running Graphene OS ever since. Graphene OS is by far the most secure and private OS available. Saved my stupid ass from a data harvesting malware.
