@Revan_9766@mastodon.social The initial devices with GrapheneOS support should be available in 2027. The initial devices will be flagships so they'll be higher end hardware than Pixels at a higher price. Lower end devices will take more time to meet our requirements since the updates and security features aren't as good. It's mostly due to how Qualcomm handles it. The latest Snapdragon flagships have the best security features. We'll also need Motorola to start paying them for longer updates below flagships.
Yea, have 120Hz on my Desktop Monitor since 2016 and am now stuck with it myself, weirdly enough I still don’t miss it on my phone as my brain just does not expect it there.
You probably could trick your brain and just reduce it 1Hz at a time?
My dream phone would be similar, but with 5G and the usual larger size (imo the tradeoff is worth it in my case).
It would also have a silicon carbon battery to have the huge capacity, and most importantly a CPU limiter in the OS to stop it from eating up power by constantly turboing.
Which ones exactly? And are they bad things to lack rather than minor preferences? I’m pretty sure it has both the front and back camera, so I guess it doesn’t meet the one camera priority.
maybe it’s the headphone jack? is that really important?
Have the Pixel 3A which gets pretty close. Does not have swappable Storage and only the latest security patches as there are still, what feels like, two random people backporting security patches as its not officially supported by LineageOS. Not sure how long that will last.
Yeah, especially for modern phones. What good does the more powerful hardware do me? I don’t do anything on my phone where I need more processing power. A higher quality screen is nice, but all modern phones have screens that are of a high enough resolution to not matter. Just give it a larger battery and I’m good.
I guess Im the only one who would prefer cheaper phones. Midrange with a jack is far more appealing to me than some flagship.
I think, they reason they did this is because the only chip rn beside tensor that is compliant with what standards graphene has is 8 elite gen 5.
Totally with you. For me a perfect phone consists of:
I just want phones to last longer than a day again :(
Too late for me. My current phone has 165 Hz (Motorola Edge 40 Pro) and I don’t want to go back to a mere 120, let alone 60.

I disagree with this one
You’ll need to upgrade again if/when the network support changes. I’d prefer that it was future proofed
I do not worry about that: I live in Germany. I’ll be long dead before anything changes around here 👍
You will never get a phone likes this.
…Unless you go for Fairphone 6 Plus.
There are multiple points which the FP6+ does not meet.

:( Way to ruin somebodies hopes and dreams.

Sorry I meant as a new phone
