I don't know. Surely it is possible to have a contact list without it
being stored by Google?
Yes, just turn off all the syncing with in the google account on the
phone. Preferably before you've uploaded/restored your
contacts/calendar/etc to the phone. Then never do or set off manual
sync for that account.
Deleting the google account will definitely break the link to google
but I have feeling the phone will complian about not being able to
"phone home" and it may affect your access to the playstore.
I have zero interest in the play store. I suppose system updates would
be missed.
I would use phone, SMS messaging, camera, mapping/gps and very little
else.
I have a desktop for mail, shopping, storing photos etc.
