Graphene OS Review

Why I Switched?

My Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 running on /e/ OS that I acquired during my senior year of high school ceased functioning after a recent problematic update. Consequently, I was compelled to obtain a new phone with de-Google capabilities as I dislike the presence of AI, ads, relentless sign-in requests from Google, and the questionable business practices of large tech companies.

My Review of Graphene OS

In comparison to /e/ OS, GrapheneOS provides faster and more stable updates, ensuring your device runs on the latest security patches and features. GrapheneOS is designed to be lightweight and minimal, offering a bare-bones Android experience upon installation. This means you'll need to install applications to build the user experience that suits your needs. Despite its stripped-down nature, GrapheneOS delivers an exceptional secure minimalist experience by prioritizing privacy, security, and performance. It is particularly well-suited for users who value these aspects and wish to customize their device according to their preferences.
