I would sooner at this point buy an iPhone than a Samsung with all the joys of Google's AI nonsense and the "privilege" of Samsung's invasive anti-privacy clauses and shitty preloaded apps. Yes I can remove them - I shouldn't have to in the first place. I would GrapheneOS if my work situation and app needs would allow but alas they do not so the choices are becoming difficult. This one? Not so much.
Google's AI is in your next iphone, congrats
I haven't bought anything yet but in an iPhone I can turn that shit off. GrapheneOS is the way but OOBE Android is far more invasive than an iPhone. I like my AI dumb and turned off.
