While browsing through the privacy community, I read about the BraX3. A new privacy centric phone developed by YouTube content creator Robert Braxman.

Before I support their IndyGoGo, I’d like to get your opinions about the company and their last phone, the BraX2, which apparently didn’t get the most glowing reviews.

    If you look through Braxman’s content history, he never does a video showing how to flash a phone, he only talks about it. You can do a search and from random videos from people you’ve never seen before doing step by step showing how to unlock a phone, flash it, and lock bootloader, Braxman shows nothing.

    Look at hist website from 1995. He uses buzzwords. There are free website builder tools that can make a website more flashy than his. I question his skill level of what he can do vs what he has someone else do and then he takes the credit to sell.

    It would be cheaper to buy any Pixel and then flash any custom ROM yourself, rather than pay an extra $100 for flashed phone that you can do in 10 minutes.

    I flash GrapheneOS for free because I only touch the computer for a few steps, the rest of it is waiting for the installer to finish and automatically reboot phone.
