if you are looking for privacy any phone will do as long as you can get something like lineageos in it. get one with good support for roms, stock roms are all similarly bad.

depending on the extent of your reliance on google and which apps you use, you might want to look into microG.

as others mentioned here the baseband processor and some other bits are black boxes, even if it isnt backdoored on purpose they are known to be exploitable by law enforcement, so be wary of that.

this applies to pretty much any phone, regardless of country. my chinese phone works well, and is pretty good for the price.
