Degoogled phones review by Efani
Good day community, we would like to share a very interesting review of degoogled phones - you can watch it here.
We find it very interesting as the reviewer is talking about pros but also cons of using these sort of devices.
We are especially in agreement with the following:
- Have multiple devices, dedicate one (degoogled) device to communication and a separate device for other stuff (banking, social, etc)
- Try to use WiFi only if you can - sim cards (and the carriers behind them) do collect information and assign unique identifiers.
Make sure that the phone we sent you has the correct Graphene OS version - update!
A couple of years ago we posted this article in our blog.
It seems appropriate that we follow up on this topic.
You can make sure that our phones are genuine by using the Auditor app, an app maintained by the Graphene community (for more information on it please see here).

The operating systems run on the phones is open source and community-based; therefore, you're much less likely to be exposed to security issues due to zero-days or intentional backdoors.
