    Just buy an older supported device if grapheneos is important to you. Something like a 6 pro would be fine.

      To anyone reading this a 6 is a great pick but its worth knowing that the 7 year update promise only began with the pixel 8 so if you buy a 6 in 2024 it probably only has about 2 years of updates left. However they are only like $150 used I think so the value is probably there even if you only get 2 years of use out of it.

      7a was the sweet spot for me, even if $300 is frankly a lot by my measure. But I think it was a worthy investment for me.

      Would definitely not get a pro since the 7a is already on the edge of what I can use with one hand. Same for 7 but downplayed, I didn’t opt for this one because it has a glass back.
