An internal Motorola presentation leak appears to confirm a GrapheneOS partnership for non-Pixel hardware, with an official announcement likely at MWC 2026.
To be fair, the bezels were huge by today’s standards, and one of the main (non-Apple) competitors had a hardware keyboard below the screen. Just think how much more usable these old smaller phones would be, if we had the screen to body ratio of the Pixel 9a.
I actually don’t mind the bezel so much. If someone put out a Nexus One clone with modern hardware and an unlocked bootloader, I’d be first in line. That programmable trackball that was also an LED indicator was so cool.
I got my Nexus One out the other day and it still booted. The screen is 3.7", it’s hilarious that it felt like a large phone at the time.
