Who the hell even ASKED for this? The fact that tech companies insist on cramming it down everyone’s throat makes me hate it even more.
Don’t suppose there’s a Linux phone?
Linux phones have considerable problems unfortunately. The biggest being battery life, which is a problem with Linux in general. The other major hurdle is getting certain apps to work, banking apps being the biggest difficulty. If what you're really looking for is a phone that you have much more control over, I would suggest an alternative android-based OS. I was in a similar position as you, looking for a phone I could control and trust, and I ultimately landed with a Pixel phone with GrapheneOS, which I have been immensely happy with and it gave me pretty much everything I was looking for in a Linux phone. GrapheneOS is only developed for the Pixel series of phones though, so if you're looking at different models (or have a non-Pixel already), then you'll need a different OS. There's been some good threads about it on here if you search around.
Probably what I'd do as soon as my current iPhone is no longer usable.
PureOs is a linux distribution for phones
Or you could buy a Pinephone, though I have heard they are under powered
Get a Pixel and slap GrapheneOS on it. Haven't seen any AI stuff on my 8a
