I went through three Pixels (6, 6 pro, and 7) with Graphene before I finally gave up. Not because of Graphene, but because Pixels break so easily, and even small damage to the screen will almost certainly render the phone unusable. I’m a contractor, and I need a phone that can handle some moderate abuse. But even with Otterbox cases, my Pixels could just not hang.
Sadly, with a heavy heart and a wounded concience, I’ve gone back to Samsung. Yes, they spy on me, and yes I absolutely detest it, but at least I can drop my phone once a month and not have to replace it or pay $200 for a screen replacement.
That really blows. I have an office job and am generally easy on my electronics. Hopefully I won’t have any serious problems, but thanks for the heads up.
Lmao, not trying to jinx myself here, but I break my phones yearly, except this pixel 8 pro, which mostly only has the scratches on it that I got while waiting for the liquid glass screen protector to come in. This phone is a pretty good contender for being my longest used, minus my BlackBerry z10, a phone I miss dearly (you could replace everything minus the main board for 40 bucks). But yeah, it’s got some scratches since then, but again, I seem to break my phones yearly.
I just bought a Google Pixel!
So that I can install GrapheneOS on it.
I wish it didn’t have to be that way, lol. Can’t we have some quality third party hardware?

Dropped my phone (Pixel 7) a number of times. Can’t say I am trying hard.
I have a matte screen protector and a regular case on my phone. No cracks.
I put mine in a case right away. Hopefully I won’t have problems.
