What should I do with a Note8 phone with malware if I'm sure if I reset it I won't receive security updates anymore?

The phone is from 2017 and I think it's been infected with malware because of some pop-up windows mentioning Obamacare and Obamacare was misspelled. I also think I had a problem when my Twitter app which I wasn't signed into notified me about a login attempt with some cryptic username. I don't know much about that.
As far as those pop-up windows, I did click on a link in them. I don't remember what happened.
I'm sure if I do a factory reset of this Samsung Galaxy Note8 phone, I won't be able to download security updates again. Samsung stopped supplying security updates for this phone some time ago.
