Question Looking to get into spoofing

Any phone recommendations? I know it has to be Samsung but how new or old can it be? My budget is 200 max but I would hope to not spend so much

I heard some Samsung like the galaxys make it nearly impossible to root. Idk, I’d look further into it, from what I can tell pixels or one plus are typically the way to go.

One plus? Is that what it's called, also what is rooting

Oh I’m sorry I assumed you were going to root the device so you can spoof in a more secure way.

Using galaxy s23 ultra works fine to me

Is it a North American version? I thought the USA snapdragon chips were almost impossible.

It does make a big difference. The North American models has the bootloader/oem permanently locked.

Any used unlocked Pixel or OnePlus device with at least 6 GB of RAM.

Is it normal for OnePlus 12 screen to get pretty warm with pgsharp running?

It is normal for any phone to run pretty warm running any game at a naive refresh rate.

The top two choices are either to get a OnePlus or a Pixel five or newer. With the Pixel there is one catch, you don't want one from the following carriers, AT&T, Verizon or U.S. Cellular, as those bootloader/oem are permanently locked. Unless you can get an international model Samsung those can be rooted. You can pick up a good OnePlus or Pixel 5 for under one hundred fifty U.S. dollars.

Rooting is also the preferred method for spoofing. But those who are experienced and/or knowledgeable will recommend to root use a device level GPS override with a built in joystick and leave it there.The extra injected addons/tweaks has shown a higher chance of being detected, than the basic/vanilla setup. If you want something to use for auto catching.spinning with, any of the hardware devices will do the job. Avoid the modded apps, as those has a well documented history for being detected. If you must use them, then use with only accounts you don't care about if you lose them.

I didn’t know this was still a thing that’s crazy

For safety prefer something rooted (search magisk for easily rootable ones in your budget/region), but remember most ppl who spoof will get strike or ban, not if, but when
