LineageOS 21 continues to be a solid choice for most devices. It's stable, receives monthly security patches, and has a clean UI. I’ve been using it on my OnePlus 11 for weeks with no issues.

Pros:

• Regular updates
• Wide device support
• Minimal bloatware

Cons:

• Some device‑specific bugs

For power users, Pixel Experience 12.1 offers a near‑stock feel with added customizations. I’ve flashed it on a Xiaomi Mi 13 and love the performance boost.

Key features:

• Pixel UI with add‑ons
• Strong community support
• Low battery drain

If you’re after a feature‑rich experience, Pixel Launcher Plus based ROMs (like PixelCustom 2025) give you the best of both worlds: Pixel aesthetics with added privacy and performance tweaks.
