Whatever you do don't do system update. Android 10 runs much faster on your device than lets say android 14 and it has less preinstalled bloatware.
Of course it's tempting to install harmony OS but how?
This is old device from 2020. You can't install harmony Os with OTA update. You actually paid $800 bucks for it at that time? Damn. 5 nanometer chipset from the year 2020 is not that bad. We still get 6 nanometer chipsets even in 2024! Lmao

And even USA is not all saints.
They will spy upon you no matter the phone or brand.
But there are too many people and devices worldwide to spy on a every single úperson and this is way too hard and too difficult work for anyone.

I did not said i hate USA i only dislike spying.
But everybody does that.
almost 70 years ago there were agreement that no country can use and install weapons of mass destruction in hyperspace and nowdays Russia, China and USA breaks said agreement and we all could be in fear and danger.
Having and using a smartphone can be done without google services.
Huawei is an option. Like i said for Gmail i can use brownser. Instead of Google play there is Harmony or Huawei store. Plenty of apps are available plenty not but doesnt matter most popular still going to work like Tik Tok, Whatsapp, Facebook etc.
And in the most worse case i can always download and install Gblox app which gives nice latest android over harmony on a Huawei device which will be perfectly working and offers unlimited updates.

I call it a useless souvenir, since it comes with halfbaked OS and crippled App Gallery.
It is now become a money laundering project for anyone who want to support china.

People buy smartphone to simplify the need.
If you hate U.S.A so much, then go throw away your Android phone, delete your Gmail/Yahoo account and stop speaking english.

Some mention problems with google support, others mention less capable chipset, but i will add that i will never buy phone that costs that much. Its not even about having the money or not, devices like that are simply not worth it, especially the price difference compared to phones that cost roughly 500 $/€/£.
When folding phones were prototypes and were mentioned as a concept, there was a general understanding that folding phones would be available across all price ranges and that in time the price difference would become smaller and smaller. So we hoped that after 5-7 generations we might get to choose between a regular midranger of 350 euros and a foldable counterpart of, lets say, 450 euros. And let the rich decide if they wanted to buy regular flagship for 1000 euros or foldable one for 1200 euros. How wrong were we. And to put an insult to injury, even those "flagship fildables" either come with old chipset, trash cameras, impractical screen sizes or small battery, or some combination of those.

On paper, it's a really compelling product, but I wouldn't get it when the camera experience and the general software experience is problematic.
