Samsung is working on a new AI experience for its devices that will help you use your phone without ever accessing the Settings menu.

What is the best Android phone manufacturer after we count out Samsung?
Google?
Yes, obviously, I could Google this, but I’m looking for real peoples’ opinions. I’ve owned OnePlus and LG android phones previously to my current Samsung. I loved my OnePlus phones, but my current provider doesn’t support them.
Edit: LOL. I just realized you were suggesting Google as an android phone manufacturer.
Indeed. Get a pixel. Load some other de-googled OS onto it like GrapheneOS.
Can confirm that Graphene is easy as hell to get up and running and is an excellent OS.
Unfortunately using a custom OS like GrapheneOS or LineageOS breaks Play Integrity API checks, and some important apps like banking apps use that.
Fuck Google for closing Android.
Every bank installed on my phone hasn’t had a problem. Chase, Navy Fed, and USAA for those who would ask.
I guess to each their own.
American banks?
In Finland the bank apps I have used use either SafetyNet or Play Integrity APIs.
And plenty of random other apps break for LineageOS or rooting as well.
Awful hardware and value proposition in my area. I still had to get one because no one else let you degoogle on day 1 and grapheneos is excellent. It’s insane I had to buy a google phone to get away from google.
Depends what you mean be best. I choose FairPhone
Motorola (technically owned by Lenovo now, but even some of the Lenovo phones are great).
