14 days agoI have had a sandisk microSD in my last 2 phones for 7 years in total and my girlfriend has had hers for 8.
Absolutely no problems with the SD cards (besides Spotify being a piece of shit app)

Nope, you can encrypt them. It is a default android option.
What? What are you talking about?
Expandable storage is for photos, videos, music, books, etc… not for “important data.” Pixels made their storage tiny specifically to push users to use Google Drive, Google Photos (pushing the “clean your device” store everything in the cloud BS), YouTube Music, etc…
A vast majority of people also use their phone as an MP3 player and camera and apps, not just a chat device. My music library is not crazy and would not fit on a pixel together with my photos/videos, for example.
Apparently it is to use cloud services 😉 pixel phone storage was incredibly small. At least this phone has up to 512GB internal storage allegedly. For a ridicous price I assume.
Do you think an attacker that would physically access your phone to physically probe internal debug pads would not own a heat gun or care if the screen gets damaged during disassembly? 😂 it is quite trivial to open.
They aren’t giving the phone back. If it is such a targeted attack that the attacker is willing to open the phone at all, they will just fully disassemble it, it doesn’t matter if it is repairable or not
It is bulkier, true, and harder to waterproof, but those are essentially the only 2 downsides.
Security shouldn’t even be a consideration unless you are in the 0.00000001% of people doing professional spy or espionage work (or a target of them) that someone would be willing to go through the very elaborate operation of disassembling a phone to exploit firmware bugs to insert malware in order to put it back together into a compromised surveillance device and then slip it back into a location where you would just think you forgot to take it. In that case you should be using burner phones anyways, provided by the employer with a security team behind them.
