I have been extremely happy with GrapheneOS. The built-in browser includes ad blocking, although it is not as good as uBlock Origin.

Just run Firefox for Android. You can run a full copy of mv2 ublock origin

Graphene recommends Vanadium as Firefox "does not have internal sandboxing on Android".

		Graphene is right if you're afraid someone is trying to hack your phone with an RCE in some form of drive-by exploit to hijack your browser. While RCE attacks and Firefox 0days do exist, I think the privacy improvements outweighs the anti-exploit benefits provided extra layers of sandboxing. That said, Firefox does seem to be rolling out Fission on Android, which brings hope that site isolation may come soon so that we can have both benefits at the same time.

How is the overall Graphene OS experience? Do you have any problems with banking or payment apps?

		https://privsec.dev/posts/android/banking-applications-compa... Banking and Credit Unions are a breeze for me. Grok is a no-go. Frustrating, given that's where all of xAI's new features go. Way better than stock Android or iOS, which are basically spyware by design.

		I have had no issues with any bank or brokerage apps, but NFC payments with Google Pay are blocked.
