GrapheneOS is the way to go, unfortunately the 5a won’t be supported by Google for much longer, only until August of this year. GrapheneOS will probably provide a few extra months of extended support though.

Cosmos7349@lemmy.world 4 months agoDon’t have a 4a, but big fan of my 5a with Graphene! The last one with both usb-c AND a headphone jack! It has been my phone of choice since my iPhone SE broke, and it is still my main driver.

I’m still on my Galaxy S10e.
The last normal sized phone with USB C and a headphone jack.

The Pixel 7a is almost the same size, just 0.2 inches bigger. Unlike the S10e, it is still supported by Google and gets security updates (until 2028). And you can install a better, more secure Android ROM like GrapheneOS.

Phones without a headphone jack can take a flying leap off anl bridge and fuck themselves on the way down

Ah, I thought the latest ones were going big again. I’ll have to check them out.

the 5 series is pretty much just the flagship but in a reasonable size
