    I just got a xaiomi 13 ultra and want this on it. The Chinese phones are awesome folks and the camara with laica is amazing.

      GrapheneOS devs from what I’ve seen is still pretty lib in a way that would effect chances of a Chinese phone getting it.

          Good to know! I had recalled some radlib stuff on the forums ages ago so good to know there is focused policy that ensures that’s not a factor
