I hope they also enhance their social media strategy, as their unprofessional and aggressive way of communication makes me question their trustworthiness more than I want, as I think the project is awesome.

Doesn't seem "it's finally ready" when they didn't name the name.

Break free, implying they won't support Pixels anymore (is how I interpreted it at first anyway), but they are simply expanding support for more devices. 👍

It'd be funny to me if Pixel sales tanked a significant amount and it turns out that people only used their phones for Graphene.

Me personally, I don't like Pixel phones. But I've owned every single one of them through 9 Pro.

I look forward to a Graphene future.

I'm glad this is getting some traction now, but this is some poor reporting. This is one site reporting what another site saw, which was just GrapheneOS restating things they've been saying since the summer, with no new info. I read both this article and the one they link to as their source and learned nothing I haven't already known for months just from casually checking on GrapheneOS socials.

I'll speculate.

My money's on Asus. Asus is a bit more mainstream than Nothing but still enough of an underdog that I think they should see the value in a partnership. They already target an enthusiast niche with the ROG line.

The Nothing Phone 3 uses an SD 8s Gen 4, which is not Qualcomm's "flagship" SOC, and it would be stretching the definition of "major" OEM, but who knows? This seems the most likely after Asus.

Moto's only flagship Snapdragon phone is the Razr Ultra, which I guess is possible. It'd be weird, but hey, I'd buy one.

OnePlus has been moving in the opposite direction for years now, locking things down more and more. I think they're too big for their britches at this point.

Sony's flagships are crazy expensive, well beyond the price of Pixels. They also don't cover the US market, though I'm not sure how important that is to the Graphene devs.

HMD doesn't make any phones with flagship SOCs. I think their best is the Skyline, with a 7s gen 2, Qualcomm's fourth-tier SOC line (the "s" stands for shitty).

Fairphone doesn't use flagship Snapdragons and GOS has had some pretty nasty things to say about them in the past.

Samsung is a pipe dream. They'd have no motivation. The entire GOS user base would be a rounding error to them.

On a global scale, Xiaomi would be a huge get. Not sure I see any of the Chinese OEMs focusing on this though.

Lenovo and Blackberry...might still exist? I think?

I wish fairphone could be the thing, but unfortunately - doesn't seem to be the case https://piunikaweb.com/2025/10/13/grapheneos-ending-pixel-exclusivity-new-oem/

I pray that my Pixel 9 is my last Pixel.

Could Fairphone count as a "Major" Android OEM ?

They do use snapdragon chips, are priced roughly the same as the pixels, and might align the most with a project like Graphene and its values ?

One can dream…

I hope its blackberry, id love to see them re-enter the market, and i'd love an excuse to buy one.

Fuck! I brought a pixel just for GrapheneOS 2 months ago. Hoping they would continue the support.

Would love to see oneplus support.

I guess i know what my next year's phone is gonna be.

i hope grapheneos keeps supporting pixels, if possible. i liked pixels way before I discovered grapheneos due to the cameras that I still think are on top in the android world, and when I became privacy conscious it was a perfect add on to an already nice phone imo.

Please let it be Nothing or OnePlus 🙏

For my brokes ass I'm just going to keep buying secondhand last-gen pixels, but its good for the overall market to get an expansion in grapheneOS support.

This needs to happen so bad. Very excited for the future of mobile computing. We are so back.

I hope they announce what that new phone is before my Pixel 6 goes EOL

Finally escaping from Tensor jail. Hopefully the new phone has a decent design.
