Thanks I watched your links, now my only questions is besides security are there any other reasons for Graphene, like battery life? Just making the decision of getting like a Galaxy 21 or 22 or a pixel. The thing that is most important is battery life for me.
You can get good battery life from a Pixel 6, 7, or 8 series device even with stock Android.
It only gets better when flashing a custom OS, particularly GrapheneOS, because you have more control over which apps can be running or using the network / location chips because radio or location can chew through battery charge very quickly.
@Corkyskog
Is the pixel worse for data gathering than a Galaxy? Or is it just the ability to flash graphene that all the privacy stuff comes in?
