It is supposedly the most secure and private cell phone operating system out there at the moment. Unfortunately, it is only compatible with Google Pixel phones, which are expensive.

Pixel phones are worth ever dime. I've had 3. 2, 5 and 7.

Each of those phones came out 2 years apart. Do they suffer from planned obsolescence or something that results in them being worn out after only 2 years? Or you just prefer the technological advancements of the latest model?

You should consider using GrapheneOS. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yIZmUINSvQ4 and https://grapheneos.org/faq#supported-devices.

It's just me wanting the latest and greatest.
I've never heard of GrapheneOS and really don't have any interest in even watching at video to be honest

I have it on my P6 which I use for travel. It's fine, not sure how it would be to daily drive.

I also use Pixel phones. I have a Pixel 6 Pro. There is no planned obsolescence, but eventually things do get out of date. I have no plans to change my phone until I have no choice.

I too use Pixel Phones. My Pixel 1 lasted for 5 years, and am currently using 4a. Smooth and fast as on day one, and getting all updates and security patches till now.
