  • My Pixel 8 is my personal favorite phone I’ve ever owned. I got the Google case for it, and it just feels absolutely perfect in my hand. The slight tackiness of the case, the form factor…it’s everything I’ve ever wanted from a phone.

    As for OP’s concerns about certain apps not working on GrapheneOS: All you have to do is create a profile on your phone that runs Google Play services. And then it’s just an Android profile, and if it works on Android, it works on your phone.

    The notifications can get a little wonky if you make the secondary profile your Google Play services profile. So let me recommend making your first profile the Google profile, and then a secondary profile your privacy profile.

    It works for me, because I know when I’m trying to be private or get stuff done, I always have that nice quiet profile where the notifications are turned off anyway.
