Not to mention a gpu from 2021…

why the fuck do people care about GPUs in phones‽
The only important question is: will it support GrapheneOS? Which we don’t yet have answer for.
Might be better to just check GrapheneOS’s hardware support list and pick one with a good security update timeline (9 or 10 atm)
I guess 128 GB was the low end, so that being gone is probably not a bad thing.

The lowest you have to pay for a pixel now is 999 EUR. I think I paid around 600 USD for my pixel 8, and it was already more than I’m comfortable spending on a phone. We should stop normalizing $1000+ phones.
So complain about the fact that the base model is priced that high, don’t complain about the fact that devices with lower specs are no longer being produced. Technology advances. Lower storage tiers will always inevitably eventually stop being made.
You don’t have to buy the top of the line phones… The a-series pixels work just fine for me. Just recently got the 10a for like $400 on sale I think.
The A-series is where Google dumps all the problematic phone batteries and commercialises them.
Still work fine for me. Yeah, I had one of the 6a phones that had the bad battery but they gave me a $150 credit towards the 10a, so that was nice. Bought a replacement battery of Ifixit for the 6a, and gave it to my son.
I’d love to get a pixel art a price like that so I can give graphene a real try. Only problem is that they don’t set that phone in the country where I live so there are always markups.
