Yeah they definitely lost me as well for a long time now.
Reasons:
For anybody who comes across this buy phones by the following companies instead of a Samsung:
Samsung needs a new Marketing Team they never promote actual cool useful features instead they only present one singular new feature for over an hour. Also they shouldn’t adapt to Apple every time they remove a feature since it hurts their uniqueness image. Also they shouldn’t use their Exynos Chips anymore they’re so out of date compared to the Snapdragon Chips.
The Ultra version? Having the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra atm it’s way better than I expected shits on Samsung in every way. Though since I don’t think Motorola will release another Edge Ultra next year I’m gonna switch to Sony’s High End devices since they have great build quality, cameras, no Bloatware and aren’t made in China.
You can just use VoIP to call people it’s not a big deal and you don’t need to go the extreme ways which are being mentioned in the video you can also just spoof a lot of your device information, use a different OS etc. Minimizing privacy risks is always good but you don’t need to take it that crazy serious if you’re just a normal individual like me and you. We are low-value for big companies the more power, known you are the more steps you should take to protect your privacy.

I’m currently using a Moto Edge 30 Ultra it’s basically completely AOSP Android the only stuff that’s pre-installed are the Moto Apps that are actually useful for the phone which also don’t have any ads and the phone has way better performance than all my stupid Samsung Exynos phones. So Motorola would be very good for what you’re looking for. If you don’t want to go with Motorola though I would recommend Sony or Fairphone.
