GrapheneOS and Motorola partner to bring the privacy-focused OS to a new non-folding phone
Initial focus for our partnership with Motorola is a regular non-folding device
GrapheneOS announced a partnership with Motorola, starting with a regular non-folding device. Current 2026 models (Signature, Razr Fold, Razr Ultra) are close but lack MTE, secure element integration, and other features planned for 2027. The project notes that Pixels have become harder to support since Android 16 removed them from AOSP, and Motorola will handle much of the porting work, making support easier. The upcoming devices will meet GrapheneOS's requirements, including 7 years of updates and reset attack protection.
It's very realistic to provide better security than Pixels against remote attacks. It's far harder to provide a secure element as good as the Titan M2/M3.

A non-folder with a stylus option, an audio jack, microSD card slot and USB-C 3.2+ would be swell. In other words... a beefed-up update of the 2026 Motorola Moto G Stylus [1]. ;)

This is a relief to hear.
Also this is great unless Motorola is comprimised.
Motorola is doing a large portion of the work of porting GrapheneOS to their devices. They'll provide us with what we need for firmware/drivers in the form we need it and it will be far easier than Pixels. We'll be able to get issues in the firmware and drivers fixed through Motorola and Qualcomm.

This is not the Motorola (USA) that many of us knew for ages. That company doesn't exist any more.
The company working with GrapheneOS appears to be Motorola Mobility, owned by Lenovo (China).

I hope they try to bring Graphene OS to Motorola's mid-range devices, like the Moto G.
