I'm thinking of switching to graphene OS on my 6 Pro, did you lose any functionality you regret? Losing NFC is the biggest downside I see, but I'll survive that. Anything else?
Nope, I never use contactless payments, or even google wallet so I don't even notice its gone.
I lost a couple of AI features, but I'm not that bothered about AI wallpaper generation, it was a bit of a gimmic anyway.
I had GrapheneOS on my Pixel 5 too and that saw a good battery life improvement once I finally installed GOS.
hey thats the first time I hear about loss of nfc, can you tell/link me the reason?
From what I understand it seems more like NFC through Google Pay is what's unsupported. So that means if your banking app relies on Google Pay for contactless payments, those aren't going to work.
thanks got it, thats what I thought
