Never mind, it seems like they're thinking of wasting their time with a custom ODM-built smartphone. I truly hope they won't choose this route. If they do someone should add "Will the GrapheneOS-Phone fail?" on Polymarket, I'll bet my parents' house on it.

> custom ODM-built smartphone

I agree that this would be a crazy choice and doomed to fail.

They are a niche OS and not everyone who uses graphene wants their hardware. They'll have low production quantity and thus very high costs.
