    For now. GrapheneOS is partnering with an OEM that will offer smartphones that meet their hardware security standard. They announced this a while back and are expecting to be able to reveal the new OEM either this year or 2027. The exciting thing is it will be running on modern Snapdragon processors rather than Google Tensor.

    Hopefully all the hardware component shortages due to AI won’t have an impact to this OEM’s plans.

    I rather think that’s cool tho. If you don’t want to give Google money buy a second-hand.

      at a glance it just looks like a rehashee version of what’s already on the graphene site, while also running the risk of being wrong/inaccurate/opinonated(subjective i guess)

  Call me when they are doing the snapdragon beta. I really want to put this on my fairphone.

    Graphene is unlikely to ever support fairphone

      Weird reaction though, how many phone suppliers with an open bootloader and documented architecture are there really? If Fairphone doesn’t live up to their standards, I’m sure they can cooperate as a team instead of clinging to a big tech US monopolist that can make their lives hard at any moment.

    That would be so great. The security part missing from e/os is the only thing preventing me from buying Fairphone.

  Can it run on iPhone hardware? I would love an alternative that is not tied to apples garbage Ai and forced upgrade loops.
