Part of their next gen release, so probably 1 year after their most recent refresh cycle
Yo other companies can you just pretend it is Apple who is doing it so that you will copy this and announce it next day?
Omg omg. What to do. My old Pix does not fit me anymore. For last 2 month I planned to get new Pix 10 XL. And just out of the blue, this. Should I wait another year for a new Moto?! That's tempting. Although the first gen of new moto devices might be buggy etc.
Before it was Pixel, the Nexus phones were sometimes made by Moto. I'd wait. They were great phones, and I've used moto on Android recently when the pixel prices went too high for my budget at that time. Was very happy with it, and got a lot of use out of it. I don't expect buggy when graphene support switches.

Finally a reason to upgrade my 5 year old Moto.
As a current Motorola user, I might just stick with the brand when it comes the time for replacement
I can see how big corporations would use this for security reasons. Niche but great market.
Ultra based Motorola
is this only on their graphine devices? or are they leaving their android stock devices unlockable as well
Exactly my thoughts/concerns. I seem to remember Motorola has a decent reputation when it comes to unlocking bootloaders, though.
I haven't seen them say anything about their older phones so I would assume this only applies to the new one
I was meaning more of their Android by default phones, like most retailers are going to only sell the android version
they specify the grapheneos devices so I'm assuming they have a dedicated graphene OS product line.

I just got a pixel 10 the moment I heard that Google wants to lock down android and I didn't want to waste any time. I paid off my Samsung s23 and before even loading my Sim I installed grapheneOS.
I had a motorola G5 before my Samsung but it broke.
At least my Samsung is still intact. I can't wait to format it and load a prepaid if I need a travel phone.
