Privacy Pros: Comprehensive Android security and privacy. Ships with privacy friendly apps, allows re-locking the bootloader, as well as hardens & degoogles Android in a variety of ways.
Privacy Cons: Not a completely de-googled phone, but phone homes to Google are in order to remain anonymous and to blend in, as their absence would draw attention.
