Motorola News | Motorola's new partnership with GrapheneOS
motorolanews.com
Motorola announces three new B2B solutions at MWC 2026, including GrapheneOS partnership, Moto Analytics and more.

edit: IMO, Im not sure if upcoming moto phones would run on grapheneOS, or they’ll just pick some features from grapheneOS due to some questionable moto features like “motorola analytics” and embed it on their own OS.

I just hope this wouldn’t be a “bait n’ switch” enshittification just to kill grapheneOS.

    I’m curious if this just means that GrapheneOS will be supported on future Moto devices… Or if Motorola devices are going to ship with GrapheneOS.

      It could be that they don’t really know themselves.

      Lenovo / motorola has loads of corporate clients. Given google’s close links to the US government it seems likely that clients would be demanding ungoogled phones.

      Sounds as though, in the first instance GrapheneOS foundation is going to be advising motorola on mods to their OS to disable telemetry, and in exchange motorola will be supporting them to optimise GOS for motorola hardware.

      Depending on how these things go, they might offer it pre-installed, but it seems more likely that motorola would rebrand a downstream soft fork, and ship it with some of their own BS.
