The $700 you give Google for a pixel is only going to erode your privacy further and personally I wouldn't trust any device made by them, regardless of the OS.

Edit to say you are basically just rewarding their behaviour.

What device would you trust?

That's a good point and it's one I've been considering. I would've bought a second-hand phone if it weren't for the fact that the second-hand market in my country is so bad to the point it's not even worth considering.
