So, I want to switch to pixel and I read that if I would install custom os on it, it would not void guarantee. Is that true?

    Better idea: buy a used one for cheap and install LineageOS or something on it. It’ll run faster than the latest flagship and you’ll save a ton of money.

      This is exactly what I would do. When I was ready to put graphene on it, I had to pay a certain amount to get it fully paid off and therefore unlockable. But just after that was done, I found out that I could have purchased the same phone refurbished on eBay for less.

      install was easy!
