Jeeeez. Thats interesting! Why is iz the best phone ever made in your opinion? Maybe I need it too?
Edit: I checked. A large quantity of motorola phones seems not to be unlockable and it has android installed. So is it out of support then or how are you managing to not run around with your data for grabs?
#0 kick stand #1 if you do the chop motion, the led turns on #2 twist motion turns on the camera #3 large speaker with extra battery magnetically attaches to the back, it contains the kick stand. It is really really good for music #3.5 nice fast responsive side fingerprint reader. Not that slow under screen crap #3.6 no holepunch in the screen #4 old OS doesn't contain post 2019 three letter agency spyware #4.5 240fps 720p camera actually rules #4.6 can record in 4k pretty good #5 nice oled, 4gb ram is enough,cpu is enough, has microsd for unlimited storage, battery lasts a day, new battery is 7$, new screen is 55$, new glass is 5$ #6 cost 30$ so I bought 60x #6.9 magnetic mod 360 camera is excellent, polaroid printer is good, switch-style gamepad is excellent, car dock is excellent #7 I will eventually crack security and be able to finally do general purpose computing

I mean it when I said best phone ever made ! My next phone, I will 3d print and I aim to have all of that, plus the headphone jack and removable dual 18650
As long as you don't visit shady websites...
That's why I have a moonlight client that remotes into an isolated immutable linux VM. And I'm working on a vanilla android VM so I coild basically do any android thing but in a high security, off device sandbox.
My phone basically is just a wireless touchscreen with kick ass speakers and a slow mo camera
