    When Motorola puts out a Graphene phone, I’ll buy one. It’ll be important to break the effective Google play and iOS app store monopolies

      Same but for Samsung. I like my foldables too much. The Fold 7 is the greatest phone I’ve ever owned.

        New Rule: non-apple, non-Google, non-Samsung

        Never have I seen so much fucking bloatware in my life. None of it uninstallable.

        Not one-time while owning a Samsung did I ever feel I actually owned the device I paid $800 for.

        New “urgent” update in the middle of video job interview at 11 AM? To install Candy Crush? Are you kidding me? Oh wait - you also removed all of my default apps like SMS, and my browser because…??? Who would ever want that?

        They’re worse than Microsoft - they don’t even offer a “Not now” dark pattern.

        Motorola also has foldables so maybe one day in the future they’ll ship one with grapheneOS if this launch works out.

          If they release one that is as thin and light as a normal phone when folded, but unfolds to an 8 inch screen, I will definitely consider switching to ditch Android. I will miss Samsung’s Modes and Routines feature, though. It’s much more intuitive than Tasker. I’ll miss DeX as well.
