Coz only Pixel series is secure enough for GrapheneOS coz of its Tensor Chip. If other phones have comparable secure chips like Tensor and GrapheneOS is available for them, then using Pixel will be optional for me.

So unlike many here, I'm using Pixel for it's hardware experience and not for the software experience.

You use graphene due to work or personal use?

Shopee super brand day. Can stack vouchers but no store credit. So if dont intend to buy anything from google store, shopee would have the better deal now for 9 and 9pxl

Edit: apparently shopee removed the free storage upgrade, so not worth it already.

Ya. Can directly download Pixel camera off Aurora or install Google Play Store in your user profile and install it.

Let's say I have 3 user profiles. 1 for social media, 1 for banking and 1 for gaming. I can install Google Play Store on banking only n bank apps will function like normal but other profiles have no Google Play Store or Play Services in them. Or if you feeling lazy can just install Google Apps in your main profile and pick and choose which Google Apps you want also can.

Google Apps in GrapheneOS functions as normal user apps, not system apps. So they do not have system privileges to do any kind of sneaky sneaky data siphoning if you deny them access.


This link will explain better
