Huawei announced the launch of Android 9 a month ago, which will be limited to China first before rolling out globally - so it could take a few months.

Just root your device if call recording is that important to you.

I wonder how many people actually record their phone calls

You triggered your own alarms. Rooting does not equate to spyware. If you really want call recording in Android 9, there are fairly easy ways around it.

And get banks apps, Netflix, etc. stop working, security issue for your employer.

FNB and Netflix work just fine on my rooted device.

Yeah, we know. Anything above a 486 processor these days is a threat in your eyes.

As you perhaps know, Google FoolPlay Services is processor independent. And it is a security threat indeed.

No one cares other than you. I'll only buy Google.

I don't get your point. I'm buying a Google powered device, and don't give a toss whether there's a conspiracy or not. Most people would tend to agree.
