I bought a #Pixel 6a to finally switch to #GrapheneOS. You can get a used one for €120 and it still has 2.5 years of support.
Software-wise, so far so good. Even banking apps like #Revolut work without having to install anything from #Google. 
@sesivany I am not that familiar with #GrapheneOS. What is the key benefit of it compared to #LineageOS or /e/OS? Privacy and security features, I guess?
@trilobyte yes, it's primarily privacy and security hardening. It seems to be more thoroughly de-Googled than LineageOS. Yet everything (except for Google Pay) just works without installing anything from Google.
You can find a good comparison here:

@sesivany Thanks for the comparison, it is interesting Android Auto is supported. To add some context: Currently I am running Xperia 10 IV, but its support ends in half a year. It is possible to "officially" build own AOSP for it (because of Sony Open Devices), but I am not quite happy about the idea of maintaining it. Anyway, I will need to deal with the situation and I don't like the idea of creating more e-waste with buying new phone, so buying something older could be the way...
@sesivany @trilobyte Thanks! You've reminded me to fill out the CFP for #Installfest about #MobileLinux
