“what are the top 20 phones in the world based on privacy and privacy only ?”
“show cost per option in break down simple chart”
Ten phone-plus-OS configurations, unchanged privacy and security scores out of 10, now with an upfront cost breakdown checked 17 September 2026 across official stores. Prices are shown in their native currency (USD, EUR, GBP-adjacent CHF footnote) and are not converted — euro and dollar amounts are not directly comparable. Every OS in the list costs nothing to license; the only cost is hardware.
Upfront = lowest reliable advertised device/bundle price for the representative configuration, before tax differences, delivery, duties, accessories or plans. OS cost covers the license only, not installation time.
| Configuration | Representative hardware | Device / bundle price | OS cost | Upfront total | Privacy /10 | Security /10 | Availability & caveat | Price source |
