      Also, I absolutely do not need the newest shiniest hardware. I want something that can handle WhatsApp/Signal encryption. YouTube playback would be nice, doesn’t need to be 1080, 720p is absolutely enough on a phone. And frigging security updates for more than a few years. Can we please figure this shit out.

          So do some of the pixel series phones, and those you can install a privacy respecting OS (GrapheneOS or CalyxOS, for example).

            Yeah pixels are great in that regard. But they are flagship phones with latest and greatest hardware costing a ton of money.

              New, yes. But used, they can cost about the same as the Galaxy A series.
