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?

    GraphneOS only works on Pixel phones, I thought. You might be able to run LineageOS on your Samsung. Maybe I’m not being careful enough, but I’m on a Motorola phone with stock Android, and have focused more on avoiding spyware apps than worrying about the OS itself. I’d run GrapheneOS on my phone if I could, but at the end of the day I decided against a Pixel because I like the Moto hardware better and it’s cheaper.
