Comment on What's the catch with Motorola Edge 30 Neo?

  All Android phones support Treble if they have Google services, right?

  I haven’t used a GSI before. How are they? What’s the difference between a GSI and a custom ROM?

    I don’t think so, though I’m not sure.

    I haven’t used a GSI before. How are they?

    Neither have I; I’m only relaying what I read online about the device in question.

    What’s the difference between a GSI and a custom ROM?

    The difference is that GSI is device-agnostic, because all required drivers are on the device and stay there between flashes. ROM have to be device-specific as they have to include drivers. My understanding is GSI compatibility is merely dictated by up-to-date kernel.
