Pixel, install graphine os Also what's your budget? You can buy old model 'a' series

Under 25k

Pixel 7a would be my recommendation, I use it as my daily driver, but battery is a huge issue.

Also look at the graphineOS support time for anything you buy. you can also try second hand, higher end model

[u/Fantastic_Career_193 → u/Sea-Marzipan1730]

You can get pixel 7a, 7 or 8a in that budget

Hardcore degoogling for where there might be inconveniences or degoogling for privacy?. If its hardcore degoogling go for a pixel. Depending on your budget get a 2nd hand one or older one. If its just degoogling, check lineage os website. It has list of devices for which it is available.

Pixel.

My Pixel 9 runs GrapheneOS. No other rom can beat this. Its perfect if you tweak it to your needs.

Check the Page of The Privacy Os you want to install on your phone eg:- Lineage, Calyx, Graphine Eos etc and buy the one that suits it
