@diametraldaneben Lenovo is a Chinese company based in Hong Kong.

We're expanding device support to one of the most widely available brands of devices while keeping all of our security standards intact.

It's not our fault that most Android OEMs aren't interested in improving their devices to meet our security requirements with better updates, better hardware/firmware security and adding more of the standardized hardware-based security features.

Why exactly are you angry with us?

@irononsc @diametraldaneben Buy a used phone supporting GrapheneOS with years of support remaining and then sell the one you had before.

@liquor_american @GrapheneOS @irononsc @diametraldaneben Used ones really aren't that expensive. The Pixel 8a is getting even cheaper now that the 10a has been released. It gets 7 years of updates, of which over 5 years are still remaining, so you can safely use it until May 2031. https://grapheneos.org/faq#device-lifetime

@Andromxda @GrapheneOS @irononsc @diametraldaneben Hm, I missed that somehow. I'm a cheap bastard, usually spend $200 on a mid handset every 5-7 years, so $250-300 for a handset that I can deGoogle really isn't that unreasonable. Thanks for the guidance !
