As long as they have basic shit like NFC or wireless charging. One of the main reasons I stopped buying them. 2nd was the tablet sized screens.

Because its grapheneos you will likely have NFC, but whether you have tap-for-payment options will be a crapshoot, especially in North America, unless having an official vendor changes things with grapheneos's play store integrity issue (which is doubtful).

Best shot is that EU will make it possible, as they distance themselves from US tech right now.

Tap to pay is whatever but I do use NFC for some home automatons.

[-] DarkSirrush@piefed.ca 1 points 1 week ago

I can't imagine grapheneos shipping on a phone without NFC.

...I wish I had the money to play with homeassistant for random things.

What you use for home automation if you're into open source and security?

[-] BrianTheeBiscuiteer@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

I use the term home automation loosely. Mostly I use it for initiating Tasker scripts at home with a single tap.

I quite like my Razr. I'm sure if they're aiming to be a true alternative to the mainstream OSs, they'll be including many of the mainstream features
