Tbh, im currently using a Pixel, they are... Actually quite good, even without another OS, wich you can install.

I even controlled what it uploads, it doesn't send data when i don't agree to it (living in EU) so im fine with it and a custom launcher (the normal one sucks).

I can concur the Pixel 8 Pro has honestly been pretty good, for whatever it's worth. Granted I'm not in the EU, so I don't get the benefits of GDPR, but it's the best of a bad set of options.

Is Pixel, ironically, the only device with unlocked bootloader and seemingly with most control, i.e. ability to easily install another OS?

[-] Blaster_M@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago

Correct. Look at CalyxOS and GrapheneOS and what they support.

Okay. Thanks, guys. 🍻

I'll think about it for my next phone when the time comes.

Yes, at least from what i know, maybe there is some DIY phones or maybe Nokia pulles some great phone out of their ass somehow, but currently i know only about the Pixels being actually good at what they do.
