Now this is nice. Hopefully 3rd party manufacturers can also provide a longer life span for the device.

It was a joke/hope as they have managed to extend support further then google have done in past.

If it wasn't for wanting google chat for work on my phone I'd be using GrapheneOS on my Pixel 7 Pro.

No Google pay/Wallet so no.

Haven't picked up my wallet and cards in ages and my driving license is also on my phone..so no.. Love the idea tho of Graphene but without NFC payment in my area it is a no-go.

Funny how Google make itself indispensable to suck your data.

OK fine, i don't need it, but prefer the ability to use my car's display as i like small phones.
