You should worry more about your devices being used as crypto mining slaves or other malevolent purposes like being used in cyber attacks etc.
Unless you are a celebrity or a very rich person, hackers don't really care about regular users.

i bet there are many hackers that try to catch my bluetooth info .. i mean they need to be around me and they can see data that i transfer.. like what? a mp3 song to my headphones ? i dont see what else people will transfer via bluetooth so if hackers will listen to my songs will be fine for me.. they dont need to hack i can simply share it

With a small bit of caution you don't have to be worried. And with the money I saved over the past 4 years, I'm now getting a flagship or an upper midranger.

Or use Bluetooth with headphones only. Or don't use it at all.

That's why I love Android One.
It's not just about bragging rights that my phone has the latest software version or I keep on receiving many updates for me to pick one up, but it's mainly the security of the device.
I feel bad for those Android users with security patch level later than June of 2018 (and thankfully Xiaomi has updated my Redmi 5 Plus to June 1 2018 security patch already).
