Graphene’s problem is that its very high firmware and other requirements mean they have to stand on the shoulders of giants. Their problem is that the giant is Google.
They would probably need huge resources to do that on their own, which is why they have to rely on the maintenance effort of some large company.
Supposedly. Yet Motorola doesn’t have the reputation to be frantical about their firmware and security updating. Also, they are not at the source either, Google is. That also adds delay. We will see how the partnership with Motorola will work out in practice.
It’s interesting to hear it has high hardware requirements. I didn’t know that. That sounds similar to the problem that also causes planned obsolescence in phones generally.
High requirements not as in performance but hardware security feature. But that is the easy part as far as I understand. The difficult part is the requirement of super fast and constant security patching.

They announced a partnership with Motorola and said it will makes things better for them.

“frantical”?
Is that a cromulent word?
Indubitably
Maybe, frantic or fanatical.

Ah, I see.
