We've added an updated list of hardware requirements:

https://grapheneos.org/faq#future-devices

GrapheneOS on the Pixel 8 is the first platform using ARM MTE in production and it's such a massive improvement for exploit protection that it has to be considered a hard requirement going forward.

So besides that grapheneos only support google phones…it will be a requirement to have the one new phone?

Pixel 8/ 8 Pro are the same chip, so not counting that as two different devices.

When the Pixel 8a gets launched and google decides to cheap out and use the Tensor 2 - which let’s be true, they might on their entry line - how will you do this feature without hardware?

The officially supported devices for GrapheneOS currently are:

  • Pixel 8 Pro (husky)
  • Pixel 8 (shiba)
  • Pixel Fold (felix)
  • Pixel Tablet (tangorpro)
  • Pixel 7a (lynx)
  • Pixel 7 Pro (cheetah)
  • Pixel 7 (panther)
  • Pixel 6a (bluejay)
  • Pixel 6 Pro (raven)
  • Pixel 6 (oriole)
  • Pixel 5a (barbet)
  • Pixel 5 (redfin)
  • Pixel 4a (5G) (bramble)

This list is shown here.

The devices listed above will remain supported by GrapheneOS. This new requirement is for non-pixel devices that could possibly be supported if they already meet this additional requirement along with all the other requirements found here.

Pixel 8a should have the latest tensor 3.
