tips hat
Another reason to take a burner instead if you have to travel to China.
Or anywhere, really.
Of course they will try to get everything from your phone. They are neither better nor worse than their American counterparts.
I would never take a personal PC or phone into either country, and whatever I'd bring back I would consider compromized.
Just mail yourself your real phone
That's not much better tbh. Remote VPN into your computer/NAS at home, otherwise just live with a burner while you're there.
and how do you keep the vpn credentials secure?
