I think people going for this hardware + OS are more of a function over form crowd.
90W charging, huge storage option, high quality cameras (I already have a billion lenses on the back of my phone so I just don’t give a shit), great screen - yeah I don’t care how the thing looks. I care about GrapheneOS support and that it has the hardware to keep it usable for more than a couple of years.
Right now its between this and a flip phone + umpc for me. We’ll see where things go in the coming months.
Not me - I’m on Graphene but one of the biggest things I love about the software itself is that it’s very well designed, which is rare to see in the FOSS / privacy community. I hate shitty UIs and shitty design in general.
No card slot… Booooo !
Those cameras are stupid, 200MP is utter nonsense, no SD card slot is insane… I wish Graphene would pick a better phone
Graphene picked an OEM who were willing to work with them and a device with the right CPU to support the hardware security features.
This was what was available.
Does anyone know if it has a headphone jack? It seems dumb to brag about having B&O work on the audio if not, but I am still thinking it won’t which will kill any interest in it.
Edit: I confirmed it does not have one. total junk
All phones have headphone jacks if you buy a $10 adapter
We want it built-in, period
No. Period.
yes, period (we can do this all day, let’s go 😆)
No you want the vast majority of people don’t care at all.
Yes I want a built-in jack connector lmfao
You’re not going to get what you want here. Its abandoned tech. Not saying its better or worse, but they’re not going to add them back in. They dont want ungrounded analog devices plugging into their digital devices.
- Not a good one
- This is a good way to ensure a short life for your charging port
Here is one of the best adapters you can buy:

The charging port (aka USB-C port) isnt going to break because you occasionally plug in a cable into it.

It absolutely can.
Which model phones have their usb-c ports breaking?
I haven’t had it happen to a phone in a long time (though it did happen to the LG phone I had like two phones ago).
I’ve had it happen to another device that charges with USB-C (Focus V Carta 2). To the point where I had to buy a wireless charger (that itself needs to charge with USB-C so I have to make sure not to do it again) built specifically for the device and it’s the only way I can charge the device now.
Amazing device though. I’ve had it for like 6 years now and that’s the only part that stopped working. I haven’t inhaled combusted plant matter since.
Im sure the device is end of life after 6 years anyways, so that sounds about right. I personally havent ever had a usb-c port fail, but ive only been using iphones and pixels. Good workaround with the wireless charging though.
Minority of a minority of a minority.
Them and the “make it smaller crowd” too. A very small, very loud minority that fails to actually show up when such a product is released.
You’re getting downvoted but as a part of that crowd, I agree
