So, I should have to buy one type of device because it’s the only device you can relock the bootloader and still boot using a custom AVB key.
If you tried that on any other Android device, you would brick it, that’s the point of AVB, so you have already made a compromise before you have even flashed anything.
Now that you’re limited to one OEM, you now have to learn at least a basic understanding of flashing ROMS, only to see a lovely warning every time you boot up. Not as bad as the warning from an unlocked bootloader, but still bothersome.
Naturally this last side effect is rather minute, since you would only see it on boot, but I still like to mention it because it further reiterates that buying a pixel and flashing graphene isn’t really an answer either.
Don’t even get me started on SElinux. 🤣
