Are there any actual “GraphineOS” devices currently for sale anywhere?

(I know Motorola has some plans to roll out GraphineOS phones in the future, but this would probably complicate those plans if GraphineOS really prohibits Motorola from complying with laws.)

I was wondering the same. I have an extremely old Android that’s dying, and as soon as it does I’ll look for devices with that can run GrapheneOS. As @[email protected] says, it seems Pixel is the only one for now, and possibly one needs a slightly older model as well. That’s what I’ll look for.

Per their website, everything in the Pixel line apart from the 10a is supported. They will be supported as long as firmware and security patches are available. grapheneos.org/faq#supported-devices

Pixel isn’t sold with GraphineOS. You have to install it yourself.

actually, some websites do sell pixels with grapheneos preinstalled, for example, shop.nitrokey.com/shop/…/smartphone-tablet-4

Didn’t know this, thanks for the info!

Absolutely true, I was sloppy in my writing. Edited.

That is the way. I just don’t understand open source projects that have no ties to regions where these dumb regulations exist blocking users from said region. Why is it your problem? If California (for example) wants to block your website, let it be their problem.

Agree. In fact, even projects that do have ties to those regions. Free & open-source is a stance.
