Awesome to see more options coming out with these alternative operating systems.

Nice. Phone should release by the end of the year and GOS support by next year. Hopefully in the beginning.

Article won't let you read it without agreeing to cookies, article not read.

Archive.ph to the rescue...

Link.

I like how they mentioned "high-end" repeatedly in the article.

Edit: No headphone jack and no sd card slot. The former is not a deal breaker but the latter is, for me. Plus all those cameras in the back.

It's how you know it won't be repairable.

Honestly, you shouldn't rely on those prompts anyways... Cookies can be used for both good and evil. But in either case, those stupid prompts cause a lot of fatigue and are practically useless.

I have a plugin to always allow cookies, and another plugin to always get rid of the cookies I don't explicitly persist (auth/session for frequent sites)

It's better this way.

This is so cool, I can’t wait to migrate off of iOS and all the required AI, client-side scanning, and “safety” coprocessor nonsense.

this still ain't it. It will take at least user expandable storage to make me move. Or a real linux phone that doesn't suck in the myriad ways all the current options seem to.

Gives some time to save up for the huge price tag, but I'll be very happy to get rid of my pixel. It served me well over the years.

Yeah, a used pixel costs less. Until that's no longer viable, it isn't really any better by virtue of being a different company beyond it being a different company getting sales.

LOFIC is huge deal. This is the biggest jump in sensor tech in a decade+.

But it also means the sensor can get away with a single shot, instead of having to stack multiple exposures (which normally requires sophisticated processing voodoo via an app like Gcam). So this should make the stock Graphene camera app dramatically better.

Also… why does it need 4 cameras plus whatever that fifth hole is?

It's about as repairable as existing GOS compatible phones, at least.

I switched to Motorola after getting sick of my expensive Samsung phones always dying after 2-3 years. Best damn phone I have ever had is my current cheap-ass Moto Edge 30. It has been surprisingly easy to repair too - I recently replaced the USB port on it very easily.
Can't wait to get a Motorola that can also run Graphene.
