How long have they been selling devices that use graphene?

[–] Dudewitbow@lemmy.zip 2 points 13 hours ago (2 children)

oldest phone was pixel 6, basically when google switched to tensor and added the hardware and software requirements needed for graphene team to support it.

As a current Motorola user, I might just stick with the brand when it comes the time for replacement

I can see how big corporations would use this for security reasons. Niche but great market.

is this only on their graphine devices? or are they leaving their android stock devices unlockable as well

[–] XLE@piefed.social 4 points 13 hours ago

Exactly my thoughts/concerns. I seem to remember Motorola has a decent reputation when it comes to unlocking bootloaders, though.

I haven't seen them say anything about their older phones so I would assume this only applies to the new one

[–] Pika@sh.itjust.works 3 points 14 hours ago* (last edited 14 hours ago)

I was meaning more of their Android by default phones, like most retailers are going to only sell the android version

they specify the grapheneos devices so I'm assuming they have a dedicated graphene OS product line.
