Nice! GrapheneOS is only running on one type of device. GrapheneOS needs Google Pixel devices because they offer unique hardware security features (like the Titan M2 chip), long-term firmware updates, and unlockable bootloaders. These allow GrapheneOS to build a secure, privacy-focused OS while maintaining compatibility with critical security updates. Other phones lack these guarantees, making Pixels the only supported hardware.
