My mother has a Google Pixel 7, and about six months ago it started getting incredibly hot, and I thought nothing of it, and we've managed to factory reset it, and it worked fine, but now it's doing it again, and after seeing all the issues with the Google Pixel A lineup and catching fire, I'm very concerned, so we are going to replace it.

This apparently only applies to devices running Google Play Services, so as long as you make sure to buy a device you can put lineage on and do not use gapps you're fine and can use any app you still want.

So much for my friend being able to download new pipe and use YouTube without ads anymore, though.
