That doesn't really matter too much and is mostly personal preference.
The biggest difference is which package manager and how up to date each program in there is. Arch and OpenSuse Tumbleweed will have quite up to date packages as they're rolling release models while Mint and Ubuntu tend to be a bit slower and more stable.
I suggest going through the installation process of Arch linux at least once because it does teach you the basics of Linux but for usability you'd be better off with a distro that has a GUI installer.
Samsung phones had this for years but only in specific regions. I live in the Netherlands and have changed my phone's CSC to Vietnam just to unlock call recording. It works natively in the dialer since Android 10 or older. I had it with the Note 9.
