GrapheneOS, a privacy and security-focused Android-based operating system, has posted a series of tweets on X suggesting that Android should introduce frequent auto-reboots to make it harder for forensic software vendors to exploit firmware flaws and spy on the users.
My problem is not their design but the fact they are Google phones, as I boycott Google. Also second hand Pixels are hard to acquire for a reasonable price…
So you shouldn’t really be using any Android phone then…
What, and use Apple? Linux phones aren’t usable yet, and at least android is open source so using a non google Android phone doesn’t support Google.
Guess that depends on what you mean by reasonable.
The 5 is $130 as refurb, with warranty, from walmart. It was $699 new.
If you want a newer phone, well, it’s gonna cost more. Just like brand new phones.
If their price is still “high”, that simply reflects their desireabilty, probably from a balance of features and performance by price.
