Agreed. That could be pretty cool. Motorola devices are already solid and reasonnably priced; if they had a GrapheneOS line that would just be fantastic.

Lenovo abused their BIOS many years ago in such a way that it would load malware when it detected NTFS.

I hope that behavior is long over.

Motorola devices are terrible due to Motorola's update policy. Usually only 1-2 new Android versions max and then 2-3 years of quarterly security updates.

For this GrapheneOS partnership to work, Graphene would need enough control of the software stack to offer around 7 years of updates.
