I’ve been waiting for this news. Always rubbed me the wrong way that in order to use graphene, you had to buy a google phone.
This could be huge. Graphene team’s insistence on using dogshit hardware will be challenged, and Motorola likely has the sway to unblock banking apps (on certified phones)for users on grapheneOS. Hopefully
Yeah, I mean the one thing Motorola always shit the bed on and I think even more so recently, is providing software updates. It makes sense for them to essentially outsource that and have GrapheneOS do the heavy lifting. It just sounds all too good to be true, lets see once the first phone comes out.
This definitely makes me interested in Moto as my next phone (in a year or two).
Cautiously optimistic about this. The fact that I still have to have to have a Google phone irks me, but if this all pans out I can finalize the divorce from Google once and for all.
using a google phone has been a deal breaker for me so i was about to go with a lineage pre-installed phone, but i think i’ll just wait for this now.
