Subject: My brand new vivo V25 Pro 5G Android mobile phone is running on Linux kernel 4.19.191+

Good day from Singapore,

I have just bought vivo V25 Pro 5G (12 GB + 256 GB) Starlight Black Android Mobile Phone for SGD$600 on 15 Sep 2023 Friday.

My brand new vivo V25 Pro 5G Android mobile phone is running on Linux kernel 4.19.191+. Are there any severe/critical security vulnerabilities in Linux kernel 4.19.191+ that will allow government-sponsored or state-backed hackers or Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) to take over absolute control of my brand new vivo mobile phone? Can I download, compile and install the latest Linux kernel 6.5.4 from sources on my brand new vivo mobile phone by myself? I would like to know how I can do it.

I have decided to buy this vivo mobile phone because my Samsung Galaxy A32 5G mobile phone SGD$338 has now become extremely slow in performance and lags like hell. Maybe too many apps were installed.
Opening and using apps is now a slow and painful experience. The phone camera is even worse. Taking a photo or selfie takes 2-3 seconds. If you move the phone by a bit before the 3 seconds is up, your photo or selfie will turn out very blur. So you need to set a timer of 2 seconds when you take a selfie or photo. Taking videos with the phone camera is also very laggy and choppy. The recorded video will turn out to be choppy.

I had bought the Samsung Galaxy A32 5G mobile phone SGD$338 on 6 Oct 2021. I have used the Samsung mobile phone for 1 year 11 months 10 days [ALMOST 2 YEARS] (as of 16 Sep 2023 Sat) and it is getting slower and slower by the day. Maybe the Singapore Government had planted a spyware and/or rootkit on my Samsung mobile phone.

I need to ask manufacturer Samsung why my Samsung mobile phone is getting so slow and laggy. Is it because it is too cheap and too low end??

I certainly hope my brand new vivo mobile phone is a good purchase and it will last me for another 5-6 years without getting slow and laggy.

My bank balance as of 22 Sep 2023 Friday is SGD$3,592. I am 45 years old. That is all and everything I have, besides a HDB 2-room RENTAL flat under the Public Rental Housing Scheme meant for the EXTREMELY POOR in Singapore.

The Michael Kors private event at Mandarin Gallery Orchard Singapore on 21 Sep 2023 Thursday at 7.30 PM Singapore Time is the very 1st event where I have taken lots of selfies and lots of Full HD videos with this brand new vivo mobile phone. I must say taking selfies with the front camera is very fast. I am able to take 3-4 selfies in quick succession. There is no lag at all. Female celebrities who grace this event are XinLin Khaw, He Ying Ying, and Hazelle Teo to name a few.
