Has the OEM in question been revealed yet? Likely not one of the major OEMs because they all lock their bootloaders. I'm crossing my fingers it's Fairphone but that's because I love my FP5. The GrapheneOS devs have been pretty harsh towards Fairphone because of their slow updates.

They seem to refuse that they're working with fairphone, so it seems unlikely.

My guess is that its either HMD or Nothing. Will probably still take a while until we learn about this

The most likely contenders are OnePlus, Motorola, and HMD.

I think this takes Nothing out of contention.

What about HTC, LG? Heck, Blackberry rising from the ashes?

I'd love for it to be Framework.

Those are no longer big these days so no. Also, they're not going to restart a whole product category just for grapheneos.

As OnePlus is kinda dead and taken over by oppo, I'm guessing Sony. They have some similar collaboration in the past like with Jolla. My Sony XA2 was one of the few models that could run sailfish.

I don't think that there is any need to restart a new category. Just make your new phones good enough for GrapheneOS.

GrapheneOS has close to half a million users, I think it's worth doing some adjustments.
