An internal Motorola presentation leak appears to confirm a GrapheneOS partnership for non-Pixel hardware, with an official announcement likely at MWC 2026.
Pixels are stupid for GOS since the HW is mid at best and overpriced.
If you are buying a phone to flash it anyway, the decision should be made only on hardware (and ability to flash)
GOS has strict security requirements and so far Pixels have been the only devices out there that both allow GOS installation and meet their security requirements. Simple as.
Personally apart from repairability, I see very little meaningful difference in phone hardware these days. And a series Pixels are very reasonably priced.
Anything but a mainstream brand!
