I own a handy asus x00p with android 8 that fits my hand (released in 2018). I have a newer android 11 device (released in 2020) but it’s larger and heavier and I don’t really like using it.

What are the security risks, if I go ahead using the 2018 model to 2fauthenticate?

    You can use an OTP Generator like Aegis Authenticator from F-Droid. Afaik it even works offline, so there should be no risk if you strictly keep it offline.

        Cloud backup or to download images for the services the code links to.

        Both are optional with Aegis, I use Aegis also.
