If you can unlock the bootloader and change roms, they aren’t bad at all.
Otherwise, they’re a hard pass for me. Mind you, it isn’t like they’re any worse than phones made elsewhere as regards invasive practices. But if I’m going to be mined for data I would actually prefer it be for profit than whatever a government wants. Since the governments that are acting invasively other than china aren’t doing so as extremely, if I had to use a locked down device, it wouldn’t be chinese.
