Security is definitely gonna be worse than Android.

    Android has (as standard) stuff like sandboxing, SELinux, verified boot, FDE, etc. It's possible to get stuff like this working on normal Linux, but it's a lot of work (more for some things than others). Also the standard Linux solutions for e.g. sandboxing are just not as robust as what's provided by Android.
