@waag@waag.social the one on the right looks exactly like my Fairphone 6 with e/OS! 😀👍
Initially I ran Android 15 & 16 on it and had enough of Android violating my privacy, bossing me around and in September '26 blocking all uncertified 3rd party Apps (think F-Droid Apps).
You don't have to put up with it but YOU need to take action and kick the guest out of your house as it's not going by it self 😎
And never buy a phone with a bootloader lock as most are!
So happy with my Fairphone 6 ❤️

@ronfromnl@mastodon.social @waag@waag.social Ironically, Google Pixel is the other major phone with an unlockable bootloader. Also has great hardware security (Titan M2 security processor, MTE), great cameras, and great SoC for the midrange price of the 10a. BTW, if you enable microG's Play Integrity support (which is needed for many apps), you are still having the rowdy guest in your house. microG on /e/OS downloads and runs Google obfuscated DroidGuard blobs in a privileged process. So you might want to disable that.
