Was leaning that way soooo ima go pixel 💯😁

Ok so do we need like the latest pixel phone or how far back do you think we can go.
Thing is it depends what you're buying it for.
I need a new daily driver that has 5g connectivity.
My pixel3XL works great otherwise I wouldn't upgrade.
Will flash the 3XL with graphene after I get a new one for the DD running CalyxOS.
I really want it for my bitcoin wallets nostr and no Google stuff with straight wifi
Everything else will be on my regular everyday phone.
I'm looking on ebay and I want to get one and experiment with it. Like I wanna order something right now lmao
Fuck yeah 🫡🤘🤙
Do you have any good YouTube vid on how to flash the phone and make the switch
I wouldn't use a video,
Id just carefully read the instructions & execute the steps.
I assumed you wanted graphene, but calyx is the same deal.
You can only go as far back as currently supported/in production devices as found here if privacy and security matter:
I explain a bit more in the following note.
Add to that using out of production devices is bad in that they no longer receive firmware/driver updates. This leaves you vulnerable to known patched vulnerabilities that could be exploited.
While there are always 0 days out there, these tend to be high value & used for similar targets (once used they are more likely to be noticed & patched). When vulnerabilities are disclosed post patch, lower level actors will start to use them increasing risk if not updated. This goes for apps too especially browsers.
