I’ve been needing to buy a new phone and while I’m here in china I’ve seen some really intriguing options only available here.
obviously the telemetry is extremely problematic, more so than non chinese phones, is it feasible to try remove with adb or the universal debloater? since there is custom rom support at all? or should I just forget about it?
Custom roms like lineageOS let you use banking apps, it is when you root the device that it becomes an issue, and even that can be fixed by installing safetynet fix.
You’re right of course, but I didn’t feel like playing the cat and mouse game with Google for access to certain apps and functionalities that I often use.
