GrapheneOS supports the Pixel 3 and 3 XL, which have been out of support from Google for months now. While this arrangement will not last forever, it disproves your claim.
- josephcsible 4y agoTrue, they provide a few months of "extended support releases as a stopgap for users to transition". My point is that they're not at all like LineageOS, which tries to keep old devices working indefinitely.
- ThePowerOfFuet 4y agoInability to relock the device would be a dealbreaker for me. GrapheneOS has worked quite well for me, and as someone who used nothing but iOS since 2007 until this year, that says a lot.
