Hi everyone,

With all of the rising subscription prices, I am hoping to get some advice on the best Android device that will allow me to use the greatest number of streaming app (e.g, NewPipe, Stremio, Spotify apk, etc)

My nice-to-haves would be a device with a large screen (6.7 inches+), ease of installing apps, and durability. I used to have Samsung phones before which would be super laggy within 3 years of purchase, which I do not get with my current iPhone.

I am considering OnePlus and Pixels but am open to any suggestions!

For longevity reasons, yes. But what do you need a custom ROM for piracy? Root helps with piracy, since it allows you to e.g. modify the /data/data contents of an app.

But what good would a custom ROM do for piracy specifically?

And if they just want streaming (as it seems in the OP), literally any android phone is good enough, not even root needed. I don't know of a single android phone that doesn't allow sideloading.
