I’ve been using iPhone 14 Pro Max for a year which my company gave me. But it has disadvantages more than advantages for me. I want to change it with an Android phone that bootloader unlockable. I want to install Google-free ROM.

A little note, I don’t like S23 Ultra in particular because I really don’t like its frame.

    The reason is locked bootloader’s, some carriers lock the pixels bootloader down meaning you can’t install custom roms. Some lock it until the device is paid off or during a 90 day period.

        You can still purchase unlocked bootloader versions from other retailers, just don’t buy through a carrier
