Seems likely at this moment that Motorola phones will run GrapheneOS be right out the gate as it is a partnership. Just hopefully it’s not a one sided partnership and Motorola doesn’t strong arm the GrapheneOS people into something that is more locked away and just works like an app. digitaltrends.com/…/motorola-plans-to-put-graphen…

From the outside, this doesn’t look one sided to me and Motorola (Lenovo) won’t want GrapheneOS “locked away”. Motorola partnered with GrapheneOS explicitly because they want the highest security for their enterprise phones (in my opinion), so Motorola demanding GrapheneOS be less secure would be silly for them anyways since they prioritise enterprise (as far as I know). And in any case, if Motorola caused beef with the GrapheneOS team, I believe in GrapheneOS’s morals to ignore stupidity. They probably have a contract anyways that states Motorola have near zero influence over the OS.

Lenovo running the show is what makes it viable, otherwise I would have thought it was a Google backed conspiracy to drain GrapheneOS resources on a product that would never release. Tbh the mobile industry is long overdue for some competitive upgrades anyway. A lot of their underlying functionality has fallen far behind desktop OSs.
