I recently bought a new phone from OnePlus and when looking at the specs online, one of the cons was: may leak data to Chinese government.

I hope not, they might find out I'm a commie or something

    If you dislike the stock OS, or find it too bloated, you can flash LineageOS anytime. Most of the OnePluses are supported. It's a way better experience than any stock Android imho.

    OnePlus Nord CE 2 Lite 5G. It cost me 200 euro I think on discount from 229.

    What device did you use you till now and since when? I don't like to change my device if it's not broken but once the battery gets old it becomes a compulsion to buy new phone due to unavailability of original batteries. Phone companies should provide original batteries till at least 5 to 6 years of launch.

    Thats a good device you got there.

    I had a Fairphone before this. The idea behind it, is that every part of the phone can be manually replaced. Unfortunately I managed to leak some oily hummus into the charging port. After a 80 euro repair it still was broken. I didn't really feel like spending 100-200 euro's fixing the phone with the chance of it being completely fucked, so I bought a new one.

    The Fairphone was decent. It had a shit camera but everything else was pretty solid for a basic phone. The battery was still lasting more than a day at 2+ years of age. Their new one is a bit expensive though.

    I don't use my phone that much except for WhatsApp and some social media, so a basic phone is good enough for me. The OnePlus I have now is affordable and decent, can recommend.

    You could have exchanged that phone if you were in India while buying the phone online, if you were not planning on fixing and using it again in future. Could have saved few more bucks. Don't know if exchange offers available in Europe too.

    Was it fairphone 3?
