/e/ De-Googled Phone

$600.00

/e/ OS de-Googled phone aimed at user-friendliness and compatibility. It will work with most apps, and many types of phones. /e/ is based on LineageOS, which also covers a wide variety of phones beyond the Pixel. If you have a phone you want to keep, or really want a Samsung, /e/ or Lineage are your best options. We recommend Graphene over /e/ or Lineage right now, but if buying a Pixel isn’t an option, this is a great operating system that is far more private than regular Android or iOS.

Description

The e phone or /e/ Operating System (/e/ OS) is a de-googled phone aimed at user friendliness and compatibility. It comes with Micro-G installed, which means popular android apps work. Unlike stock Android/iOS the information Google gets from these apps is non-personal as there is no Google ID to connect the random data to.

The open source /e/ OS comes with helpful apps installed like navigation, music, browser, calendar, calculator, messaging, file manager, weather, clock and a combined app store where you can download any free app found on the stock android play store. The /e/ phone even offers their own version of services that Google offers, such as cloud storage. The interface is very similar to iPhone & stock android so if you’re used to these OS’s you’ll feel comfortable on /e/.

For a Samsung device, this is the best option, as /e/ has continuing support and software updates.
