  The problem is that (as far as i know) only pixels fulfill their security requirements, for example that the bootloader is not only unlockable but also lockable. But I also would like to have more devices supporting it

    Fairphones should be supported imo. CalyxOS relocks the bootloader and they supported the FP5 right after launch.

      Fairphone should sell phones outside of Europe

      Unfortunately neither of us get what we want

        You can get the previous model (FairPhone 4) in the US through Murena.

      CalyxOS is not a hardened OS, and GrapheneOS requires more than than just relocking the bootloader.

      Fairphone’s devices do not meet basic security requirements for hardware, firmware and the software device support including drivers. Please look at the hardware requirements at grapheneos.org/faq#future-devices and check for yourself how many of those are provided by the Fairphone. Even the Fairphone 5 has a CPU core from 2021 without even PAC and BTI.

      I think some op phones also meet the requirements.
