I have the Xperia XZ1 Compact and it's a good piece of hardware. Sony's put a bit of bloatware on it, but also Stamina Mode which I think is worth it vs Google's stock. Signal strength and speed have been good for me. I reboot it every few weeks.

But, using an OS made by an ads company is starting to get a bit creepy, so maybe it's time to switch.

Yeah the XZ1C hardware is exactly what I'm looking for. On the software side tho: Amazon and Facebook apps pre-installed, Google tracking, but also that kind of bullshit: https://www.androidpolice.com/2018/09/13/pixels-suddenly-sta...
