We're happy to announce a long-term partnership with Motorola.

@GrapheneOS, funny enough, I've just switched from Motorola to Pixels last year because their successive phones were becoming more and more crap, and on the models I've gotten LineageOS barely worked (like, to the point that you had to reboot the phone after every call). Hopefully direct GrapheneOS support will change that.

@GrapheneOS does this mean i will be able to get a degoogled motorola device in the future?

Amazing! This is great news!

[alexia@shrimp.starlightnet.work]

@lumi @GrapheneOS

TL;DR: Yes.

[da_habakuk@fosstodon.org]

@GrapheneOS @debacle hopefully with better longterm updates than current motorola phones... then im in!

[alexia@shrimp.starlightnet.work]

@lumi @GrapheneOS

Well, as degoogled as using an OS maintained by Google gets

[sh@fed.hayfidelity.de]

@GrapheneOS Aaand Motorola is back on the map. Interesting project, I guess it brings #grapheneos a huge step forward.

[grapheneos@grapheneos.social]

@da_habakuk @debacle Motorola Signature (2026) already has a 7 year update commitment but doesn't quite meet our requirements yet. The future devices with GrapheneOS support will be even better than the improvements they already made for their 2026 flagships.

[lumi@snug.moe]

@alexia @GrapheneOS yeah, ofc the end goal is using a proper linux phone, to get maximal freedom and security

but having a degoogled android device is a step along the way. though i have been stuck at that step since around 2014

@a53bdb @GrapheneOS https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lenovo but its chinese-american not chinese.

@GrapheneOS
As I understand the article, this will be aimed at corporate customers. I am hoping they will also sell to individuals and that the non-corporate customers will not have the analytics feature or it can be turned off. Motorola's problem has always been OS support. If GrapheneOS is handling support, it is a win for everyone.

[katzenberger@tldr.nettime.org]

@GrapheneOS

Good news. Can you at least reveal whether some of the devices will be at the lower end of the price range, like e.g. the "…a" Pixels?

[grapheneos@grapheneos.social]

@BoloMKXXVIII Devices with official GrapheneOS support will be available to individuals. Look at the Motorola Signature (2026) which was close to meeting our requirements but not quite there yet. Motorola Razr Fold (2026) is another example. It has to be 2027 because not everything was ready yet and a lot of work is needed on support for GrapheneOS too.

@alexia @GrapheneOS
because shit trickles down

because back doors rarely stop at enterprise use

because I instinctively want to protect people not companies

its one comment. why do you care?

[grapheneos@grapheneos.social]

@katzenberger It will start with flagship devices but their flagships tend to be priced cheaper than flagship Pixels. More devices will be supported over time. It should be expected it will start with only flagships though. Look at the Motorola Signature (2026) and Motorola Razr Fold (2026) for an idea of the kind of future devices it would start out supporting.

[redti@mastodon.social]

@GrapheneOS 💩 🤡

[jgoodleaf@mstdn.social]

@GrapheneOS @da_habakuk @debacle And the Signature looks like a nice phone. I would love to carry a 2027 Signature with Graphene.

[cambion@mastodon.nl]

@a53bdb @GrapheneOS To be fair, all phones are made there so that risk always exists anyway.

As long as GrapheneOS doesn't slack on their requirements including (but not limited to) being able to access low level stuff it shouldn't be much worse if you flash the phone yourself. And those kind of requirements are why Pixels where the only ones supported to begin with...

[wirlwirlwind@sunny.garden]

@GrapheneOS HOLY SHIT

[thing@plasmatrap.com]

@lumi@snug.moe @GrapheneOS@grapheneos.social @alexia@shrimp.starlightnet.work you're lucky you can even degoogle your android device

all the devices i bought until i realised google, samsung, etc. are shit are all samsung devices, and they all stop working when GMS is removed ​​

and there ism't even any custom roms
