I own 2 bloated proprietary devices and don’t use them for anything important, like banking or dealing with authorities. I also don’t trust the manufactures not selling my data.
Id like to have a working device with no bloatware and completely degoogled. Ironically I’d have to buy something made by google to run GrapheneOS on it. Intended use would be to use as a camera, to run CoMaps on it, pkpass files with foss-wallet, reading epubs, making phone calls and running one aurora app.
I don’t need the device to play games, watch movies, show off or to play loud music, but I’d like a jack port for my headphones (I assume google headphones would cease to work if I degoogle the device, nor would I want to spend more than necessary enriching that data grabber even more.
Is there a pixel device with a jack port?
Are batteries inside pixel devices glued to the frame or can they be easy to change?
My main OS is debian. How easy is to transfer data from GrapheneOS to debian and the other way round?
Overall if you run GrapheneOS on a pixel, how many years running it and what do you think about it?
How is the camera in GOS? I have pixel 8a.
I have the same model, the GOS camera pretty much uses the same basic features that the Pixel Camera uses, but when I checked their page for more info, apparently GOS Pixels only support night mode, you lose HDR, Face Retouch, Portrait, etc. My friends often have me take group pics and think my photos look good, so I wouldn’t sweat it, but you could always download pixel camera and restrict wifi access.
