My dream phone is a Fairphone running GrapheneOS

The GrapheneOS developers had this to say about Fairphone back in 2021:

“It's not possible for GrapheneOS to support @Fairphone devices because they're far from meeting even the most basic security requirements. They haven't come close and it doesn't appear to be a priority for them.“

I also would love a Fairphone-like device running GrapheneOS, but I don’t think Fairphone is going to be the company to deliver to GrapheneOS’s high standards.

I remember them saying that. I would've hoped Fairphone would up their hardware security standards since then.

From a couple days ago:

> It's not feasible for Fairphone to make a device meeting our requirements any time soon.

Curious who the OEM they are talking to is.
