Fairphone Is Finally Selling Its Repairable Phone in the US
www.wired.com/story/you-can-finally-buy-a-fairphone-a-sustainable-repairable-smartphone-in-the-us/It still sucks for security. If you own this phone you should consider that the authorities and pretty much anyone who really wants to can get into it at will. I wish they could meet Graphene’s hardware requirements.
Aren’t Graphene’s hardware requirements “be a Pixel”?
nah. grapheneos requires open source drivers and immediate security updates from the oems as well as an unlockable bootloader. pixel just happens to be the only one who fits the bill for all of those. as an example, the Samsung I had before my pixel wouldn’t get security updates for months after an Android release which was really annoying. Motorola will soon comply with these standards too, but they have their own line of flock camera alternatives so I won’t be touching their products with a 10 foot pole.
But you touch Google?
Those cameras are from Motorola Solutions, which is a seperate company to Motorola Mobility.
That’s two entirely different unrelated companies. They split ages ago
