@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.

    Totally with you. For me a perfect phone consists of:

    • Big Ass Battery (BAB) (Also make it changeable, so i can bring one with me and “charge” it in a second)
    • Headphone Jack
    • USB-C (Obviously)
    • 60Hz Display (Once you look at 120Hz you can never go back so I dont want to, also it drains battery)
    • microSD-Card (You can change, maybe with support to up to 1 TB just for funsies)
    • 4G (It is more than enough. 5G also drains your battery)
    • One Camera (Honestly still not over how goofy those 2+ camera sets look, they are even on cheaper phones nowadays)
    • Latest Security Patches
    • Normal sized and light (Have to be able to reach the top with one hand.)

    I just want phones to last longer than a day again :(

      I disagree with this one

      4G (It is more than enough. 5G also drains your battery)

      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 👍

        Way to ruin somebodies hopes and dreams. :(((

        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.
