I second graphene, I grabbed a pixel 6 about a year ago. Flashed graphene after first boot, and have never looked back! Fast, private, light, bleeding edge security updates, storage scopes, etc etc.
Sounds nice. Had any problems with banking apps and authenticatiors? If I remember correctly they sometimes made problems with custom ROMs (at least 5-8 years ago when I last used them ๐ )
Feels kind of ironic that you need to get a pixel phone, made by google, to get rid of google.
With Australian banks there doesn't seem to be any problems, if you don't install gplay, you won't get notifications though. However I think there were some issues with other countries' banks, but there's a list somewhere on the GrapheneOS forums/GitHub for all tested banks.
It really does, but unfortunately they simply have the most secure hardware of android phones. At least you're just paying for the hardware, but don't have to continue paying with your privacy (or pack of) if you get Graphene
No issues with banking apps!!! Not for me at least, bootloader gets relocked when installing graphene, I used to maintain a ROM for the s4 back in the day, and knows it was a pain with banking apps due to safetynet I think it was. And ya super ironic its a google phone ๐
