    Could you imagine if apple created a Sub, where they made grapheneos iphones? Google would lose billions

          If somebody is buying a phone just because it’s made by apple, they were never going to buy an android in the first place. Google would be entirely unaffected by this.

            95% is being generous too. I’d be surprised if even 1% of users know what GrapheneOS is. Tech-savvy people vastly overestimate the general public. Like how using an ad blocker is common sense to all of us, yet some 2/3rds of the world likely don’t.

      I would unironically buy a gos iPhone. Like not the newest shiniest but older iphones become reasonable pricewise

        They make pretty good hardware and the fact that there aren’t too many different configurations is a plus when it comes to software support. GOS iPhone would be awesome. Unfortunately never going to happen :(
