You might want to read up on what grapheneOS is...

I was more thinking a smart phone is a little expensive to be a burner, every burner I've seen/used has been whatever cheapo phone you feel fine ditching. I'm sure graphene is secure, but a pixel just isn't what I'd describe as a burner

arent google phones expensive?

[–] Sphere@hexbear.net 3 points 3 days ago

Yes, but if you're looking to have a long-term burner smartphone separate from your main phone, grapheneOS is pretty much the only secure option I'm aware of (although 'long-term burner' is a bit of an oxymoron, admittedly, given that a true burner is one-time-use).

You can get used Pixels for under 200 on ebay. Still expensive but could be worse.
