If ur on an iPhone the change to aany android device takes a minute. IMO pixel (and graphene, by extension) is the easiest switch. Overall pixel devices are solid. Occasional issues with cell service, I think it's a modem hardware thing that google hasn't resolved still. Would recommend getting a 7 or newer. There's also the "a" series which is a bit more affordable with a few less bells and whistles.

Okay thanks for the insight, I’m happy to make the switch given the way the worlds going
Will check out the 7a as on a bit of a budget
Solid choice. No idea what your region is but just male sure the version you get can have the boot loader unlocked. I know Verizon locks theirs, so you cant install graphene on phones purchased through them.
