GrapheneOS is great and all but I refuse to willingly give google a single dollar for their hardware.

When GrapheneOS can be installed on any device is when I’ll gladly make that switch, and hopefully one day Apple iPhones can run other operating systems.

    Buy a used one then. Google won't see your money then.

    Or wait a little longer. https://piunikaweb.com/2025/11/19/grapheneos-to-release-non-pixel-flagship-phone-in-q4-2026-or-in-2027/

    In a revealing discussion with David Bombal, the GrapheneOS team confirmed they are actively working with a “top-tier Android OEM” to bring their hardened operating system to non-Google flagship devices.

    Increasing the value of an used second hand market devices can empower other people to seek the Google Pixel devices as a decisive buy considering they keep their value for a longer time compared to other brands.
