Why serious privacy people all use the same hardware
GrapheneOS, the operating system on every phone we sell, runs only on Google Pixels. That is a deliberate choice by its developers. Pixels have a dedicated security chip, the Titan M2, and they are the only mainstream phones that let you replace the software and then lock the phone down again afterwards. On almost any other Android phone, changing the software leaves the door permanently ajar. On a Pixel, it locks behind you, and from then on the phone checks its own software has not been tampered with every time it starts.
The result is a phone that is more locked down than it was when Google shipped it, with none of Google's collection. The irony that Google built the best hardware for escaping Google is not lost on us.
Three storage options: 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB.
No compromises in daily use
The XL is for people who want the big screen and the big battery. A 6.8 inch display, the Tensor G5 chip with 16GB of RAM, a 5200mAh battery, and the same flagship triple camera as the 10 Pro. Your everyday apps install from two app stores with no Google account, and the camera, maps and messaging all work the way you are used to. It arrives set up and ready to use, with private apps installed and a printed manual, and security updates run until August 2032.
