- Cannot lock users to a particular platform.

Most android phones now support Lineage OS.

Although, I personally recommend hardware with few non-free drivers like the ones sold by Technoethical.
Other upcoming manufacturers like Rufus Tech / ThinkPenguin, Purism, or Pine64 *should* also be compatible.

Apple Phones in most cases can run forced security updates. We don't know what the future IPhone will look like. Will it be secure? Will it be private?
