I am quietly hoping this is retroactive. I have a Razr presently, and I love the thing but it's rough knowing that there's basically zero support for foldable devices yet within Lineage or Graphene. I'm hoping this enables the team working on Graphene with Moto to flesh that side out
It won't be the new phones will need security chips on a level with a pixel
This won't be retro-active, that's why only Pixels are supported today: Motorola has to include some changes in the hardware to meet GOS requirements, and they are doing that, at least on some of their devices. No other phone maker other than Google has met them fully so far.
One can only hope it's successful enough to incentivize some others to go ahead and meet these requirements: Graphene is not a company and will certainly happily work with other good willing phone makers.
