Pixel 9a is the way to go. $500 unlocked

So pixel 9a, install graphene, then who to get as a provider? They all suck but there are "freedom" oriented providers now. I just don't know who's who.

silent.link is only one I know

Do you use it?

perhaps

#opsec (plausible deniability)

silent link aren't cheap

better value is a local prepaid sim card in person with cash wearing hat/mask. recharges in cash the same. phones on airplane mode before going to store/kiosk. park car away from store/kiosk and walk far

Also, I don't like that Google phones have mandatory Gemini AI bullshit on them that you can't turn off.

Graphene doesn’t have ai

Oh yeah, if its wiped and a whole new system, it wouldnt. Duh

Yes sir you are going to enjoy it. It’s so clean.

I use “obtainium” for app updates

Check Graphene forums for helpful tips as well.

Might watch some tutorials on how to correctly enable Google services and such- if you intend to use it as your main device and still need banking apps.

Or consider having a normie phone + a private phone

You can just use it as a wifi device. Don't strictly *need* a provider. But yes, pixel is the only option if you want grapheneos

I don't think pixel is available where I am. Is it the only option?

Only option for Graphene OS yes…

Google sells it worldwide I thought. Try the official Google store

for better opsec, buy it in cash or prepaid card at Best Buy in person if near USA metros. wear mask, sun glasses, and a hat

Google Store is a KYC option that ties your identity to the devices IMEI bumber whoch is shared and activity recorded with cellular providers

currently it‘s pixel only, but this year google made it harder for nostr:npub1235tem4hfn34edqh8hxfja9amty73998f0eagnuu4zm423s9e8ksdg0ht5 to develop which caused them to find another phone manufacturer. I don’t know which one. Current pixels will be supported as promised. Status for upcoming pixel phones is unclear to me.
