I need a new phone and I want to cry because it is seeming that the Pixel Pro with Graphene is the best I can do. New phones fucking suck, It’ not about “I need the MAXIMUM PRIVACY 90000” it’s “I want some control, I’m not buying a Samsung ever again due to the mountain of irremovable bloatware”
For real. Samsung’s sheer quantity of bloatware on every phone is ridiculous. It’s the primary reason I’m never buying from them again, aside from just plain old privacy concerns.
I have a Galaxy Note 9 from the days of yore and it’s beginning to show its age, I need to replace it before it completely shits the bed, but like, what am I supposed to replace it with?
I need a headphone jack, I need it to be powerful enough to run modest phone games to the tune of Arknights and similar, and I want to feel like I have a half decent amount of control over it (no apps I can’t remove within reason)
I too was disgruntled with samsung and chose a pixel and grapheneOS. It does not have a headphone jack but I can reluctantly live with that. It has been the best OS i have ever used and I didn’t even have to root it.

Happy Motorola G 84 user here. The only ding is the camera isn’t the best but for the price this couldn’t be beat.
Not being allowed to uninstall facebook should be a crime.
I just bought an A34 for my mom. I was able to remove all the bloat directly from the launcher, except for some Galaxy apps. For the rest, I used ADB.

And no sdcard, which is a real pain in the ass for a lot of people, I think, it’s more of a problem, than just the headphone plug.
Very much so. That is indeed the worst part about the pixel.
