I mostly use apps installed from F-Droid, so I’m not sure how I’ll use the phone, except that it’s sometimes required as a contact method.

What happens wen they prevent rꝏting tho ? Samsung already doing it

I will NOT buy devices that i can't root, therefore i cannot own.

they can't prevent it so far. samsungs will just go back to needing root exploits like everyone else before them.

add to the fact they refuse to keep security updating phones for too long.
