Curious what phones are more privacy-focused.

Right now, iPhone. Hardened with some advice taken from the book of Michael Bazzell.

Planing on moving towards Pixel with Graphene OS in the near future. I’m also using macOS and planing on moving towards Arch Linux. Used it for a long long time before when times where simpler and privacy was less difficult to achieve and I plan to go back.

What carrier? Do voice calls work?

I am in the USA using T-Mobile. Yes, voice calls work. Depending on when the device was shipped, it may require a modem firmware update. After that its a simple install of bm818-tools package, enable VOLTE and then reboot.

Unfortunately most of the "privacy phones" really aren't that great of a smartphone experience due to them running Linux which isn't nearly as developed for smartphone use as Android or iOS.

I personally use a Samsung Fold 4, and run Firefox w/ add ons, DDG for search and app tracking protection.

Apple likes to boast about how iOS is more privacy focused than Android, though. Grain of salt.
