Hi everyone,

With all of the rising subscription prices, I am hoping to get some advice on the best Android device that will allow me to use the greatest number of streaming app (e.g, NewPipe, Stremio, Spotify apk, etc)

My nice-to-haves would be a device with a large screen (6.7 inches+), ease of installing apps, and durability. I used to have Samsung phones before which would be super laggy within 3 years of purchase, which I do not get with my current iPhone.

I am considering OnePlus and Pixels but am open to any suggestions!

Buy a pixel and install GrapheneOS

GrapheneOS

What's the advantage of this OS over regular Android?

You can disable network permissions for individual apps, which means no ads. Those spammy games that have a million ads suddenly are ad-free, no cracks or pirating needed.

Wow, it is a 9 month thread, what a blast from the past. Well, to me, everything, because graphene os does nothing for me- it simply does not support my device. I am not going to buy a fresh new expensive google phone ... to degoogle. I am on a refurbished used phone with calyx, still getting updates, and very happy with my experience.

Nice

Yea, grapheneos is a tad too device fussy.

I should look into calyx for my ancient stuff
