need a recommendation (feddit.de)

Is there a smartphone that I could recommend to someone that currently wants to buy a last generation iphone? They want lots of storage and good battery life I think.

I am worried about all the tracking shit, I guess if the phone could potentially work with lineageOS that would be great too.

tl;dl is there a go-to smartphone atm?

I could recommend Oneplus5t, but AT&T now prevents them from working right, after feb 22, they say its a 3g phone (bullshit)... i'd imagine others will follow suit. With custom firmware they are fine (i wonder if they can't identify them?), and the Oneplus6 is still "supported". But in the spirit of future proofing, probably shouldn't get anything without 5g... and that more than doubles the price. But if you've got the money, I've had a great experience with Oneplus.

There is Volla Phone, a relatively new supplier in Germany. They sell Gigaset phobes preinstalled with Volla OS which is compatible with Android. Don't have any experience with it, but you may have a look at volla.online.
