Well then, you're already all set. Google edition phones all have unlocked bootloaders. I'm currently running a Pixel 6 Pro with GrapheneOS. It's super easy to install and use, even if you've never messed with your phone before. I've been looking to potentially upgrade to a newer phone, because mine is a few generations old and Graphene doesn't support phones forever, though they do for quite a while. An unlocked Pixel 9 Pro is around $550-650 right now, but I'll probably wait another 6 months, as the prices will probably fall another $100-$200 in that time frame.
