Preferably before my Pixel 6 is EOL later this year...
You've got a month, FYI...
Does official pixel eol affect grapheneos?
yes, they only support devices still supported by Google updates. When a pixel is eol'd, graphene stops supporting the device
Wow, thats dumb.
You either have to wait for Motorola or get a new Pixel.
For my Pixel 6 Pro I think I'm going to wait for Motorola or the low chance that a Linux phone becomes daily drivable, and even then considering my budget I don't think I'll switch until enough stuff breaks. Although I wish they'd extend updates for at least the few months before their phone releases so people aren't left hanging
I'd choose any other company over Google tbh.
My last few have been used off ebay. Pixels really are mediocre phones these days. And the deals on used A series aren't as good as I remember.
Pixel 5 was the last good one.
