Murena’s /e/OS 3.0 just landed, and Ryan puts it through its paces on a Fairphone 4. This de-Googled Android build amps up privacy with granular tracker blocking, per-app geolocation spoofing, and a kill switch for real IP and analytics. New parental controls, weekly “privacy score” reports, and an ingenious SMS-based “lost phone” locator make life offline safer, while UI tweaks — smoother navigation, tablet layouts, and snappier camera performance — push polish to a new level. If you want a modern smartphone that respects your data without ditching essential apps, 3.0 is the update to watch.
