If somebody is buying a phone just because it’s made by apple, they were never going to buy an android in the first place. Google would be entirely unaffected by this.
95% is being generous too. I’d be surprised if even 1% of users know what GrapheneOS is. Tech-savvy people vastly overestimate the general public. Like how using an ad blocker is common sense to all of us, yet some 2/3rds of the world likely don’t.
They make pretty good hardware and the fact that there aren’t too many different configurations is a plus when it comes to software support. GOS iPhone would be awesome. Unfortunately never going to happen :(
They also mention “major Android OEM” Which does not apply to Apple.
tinfoil hat on It’s obviously Apple funding this. They know most android users won’t buy apples, they just want to weaken Google.
Could you imagine if apple created a Sub, where they made grapheneos iphones? Google would lose billions

GrapheneOS is used by people in danger of being silenced, e.g. journalists

I would unironically buy a gos iPhone. Like not the newest shiniest but older iphones become reasonable pricewise

I can only think of Motorola doing rhis and it would ROCK !
Yeah, I had two Motorola devices back to back because the price was right, then I switched to Pixel for GrapheneOS.
The Edge 70 Ultra comes in Q3/4 2026, that could be a hot contender.
