Blastoidea

I hope you will never change or compromise those requirements.

csis01 Current pixel phones actually ARE samsung.

Interesting! Can you provide a link to details?

de0u they are not Samsung phones. Samsung happens to manufacture the custom google designed soc and the phones use an exynos modem.

I love my z flip (for the aesthetic of course, just wish I could put graphene on it.

Yes, the design is really cool. I've always wondered how a CustomOS would handle the second screen, for example
(Just as an aside, I don't want to get off topic here).

matchboxbananasynergy - Can you please send me a link to Google pixel fold device you are referring?
As of Jan 2022, there doesn't seem to be a Google pixel "fold" device.

This is an old thread: The Pixel Fold has been supported by GrapheneOS since it came out, see: https://grapheneos.org/faq#supported-devices

You can purchase the Fold from a number of retailers, including directly from Google: https://store.google.com/product/pixel_fold

treequell I think its market dependent. Doesn't seem to be available in Canada. I guess not enough demand for them? I certainly don't have any interest in a bendy phone.

bookreader Indeed it was released only in Germany, Japan, UK and the US.

Murcielago That was a question I had before release too, but it appears the second screen is properly supported through AOSP, and therefore is also supported properly on GrapheneOS.

Cool, interesting to hear - thanks for the quick reply!

I also hadn't thought about the fact that the Google Fold also has two displays and is supported by GrapheneOS.

If one of the screens would not work properly on a custom OS, few users would probably install GrapheneOS on it.
