a Pixel 3 they’re basically the Google equivalent to the iPhone I did some work merging code for my Fire tablet’s Android kernel, and when I saw how much development Google put into Android, I figured Pixels would probably have the best drivers thing is kinda old, but it works great for my purposes no SD card slot though ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ but it came bundled with a few USB adapters, a wireless charger, and some headphones.
