About this video
Your smartphone holds your entire digital life—calls, texts, photos, finances, and even your physical location. But how much of that data is being shared with Big Tech and shady data brokers?
In this video, I put two “privacy phones” to the test: the Above Privacy Phone (Pixel with GrapheneOS) and the Brax3 Privacy Phone (Rob Braxman’s device with IodéOS).
👉 After 6 weeks of real-world testing, I share:
• Hardware specs & key differences
• Battery life & performance tests
• Camera quality comparisons
• Carrier/SIM card compatibility issues (potential deal-breaker)
• Privacy features (GrapheneOS vs IodéOS)
• My final recommendations on who should buy which phone
⚠️ Spoiler: Both phones had some drawbacks that you should know before buying.
If you’re serious about protecting your privacy, this review is for you.
