It would be nice to buy a phone that officially support GrapheneOS. I dont want to thinker with phones. I can image it is going to be the same experience as going from Windows to Linux. Things would actually work in a good way as a user wants to instead of locked down requirements.
GrapheneOS has partnered with Motorola and were supposed to see phones that come with GOS sometime in 2027
It's pretty funny that out of all the manufacturers Graphene doesn't find acceptable, they went with Motorola in the end lmao. Were Nokia and Ericsson not available?
Who knows but GrapeheneOS success with Motorola can encourage other OEM's to want to work with them.
As for why not maybe Nokia/ Ericsson people aren't aware of it somehow or not focused on how good it is as an alternative
Definitely would love to see what Nokia does with GrapheneOS. Also, never heard of Ericsson till now what do they specialize in/what do people like about them?
Please and thanks
I wonder if that's influenced by inventory control industry. Motorola/Zebra has been in that industry in a way that Samsung/apple/LG hasn't been and they run Android now almost by default. I've used some older windows ce devices and modern ones are using Android, having more control over the device would be a huge advantage for those devices.
Next time you see someone doing inventory/receiving try and get a look at what devices they are using.
