At this point the only phone I would be excited for would be the Motorolas with GrapheneOS. Wouldn't mind paying a little premium for them either.

    After experiencing the terrible security standards around eSims I crave dual physical slots like nothing else.

    Apparently most carriers won't let you manage a sim via your account (because people often get them hacked and lol we're not gonna implement better policies) so instead you need to visit a store if you want it unlocked or moved to a new carrier. Which defeats the entire purpose of it being an eSIM in the first place.

    Something more libre would be ideal ofc, I'm just afraid we're more than a couple years away from those.

    Linux/FOSS adoption is fine on desktop because you can always have another PC at home as backup.phones are a digital lifeline though. Most of us need a greater stability and reliability from the software in such devices, as no one wants to be carrying and charging two phones.
