    For what its worth, my Sony Xperia 1 VI didn't come with a lot of google apps and it was easy enough to get rid of those. Obviously play services and some other stuff remain, so it's not a degoogled phone, but it's alright. Sony asks for some analytics stuff, but that's all very easy to deny.

    Sony also makes it very easy to root, unlock and flash your phone, with an official guide on how to do that. It's not as easy as installing graphene OS, but I'm sure somebody will built lineage or something for it at some point

    Edit: Here are links to the official documentation, Sony makes it pretty easy to built and flash AOSP
