TL;DR
- The team behind GrapheneOS has confirmed that a port of the OS to Pixel 11 phones is almost complete.
- They add that Pixel 11 support will be available after the Motorola Signature 27 gets GrapheneOS.
- The group further notes that GrapheneOS on Pixel 11 phones delivers performance that’s “more than good enough.”
GrapheneOS is arguably the best Android fork if you value security and privacy. The software originally missed Pixel 11 phones because they lacked support for the Memory Tagging Extensions (MTE) feature. However, MTE is shipping to Pixel 11 devices with Android 17 QPR2, and the team has now revealed more details about the port.
The GrapheneOS team announced on social media that GrapheneOS for Pixel 11 phones was nearly complete. Furthermore, the group said that GrapheneOS based on Android 17 QPR2 indeed supports MTE functionality. There’s no specific release window just yet, but the team explains that Pixel 11 support will “soon” be added after the Motorola Signature 27 gets the OS and following the completion of GrapheneOS based on Android 17 QPR2.
