10a will get longer support, so why not (unless 9a is significantly cheaper)?
Isn’t part of the point of wanting GrapheneOS is that the official support periods don’t matter?
For the reader: look at things like LineageOS for the usecase of using things past official support period!

CalyxOS claims releases are paused[1] and the best you can get is Android 15. How recent are security patches you're getting? Can you even lock the bootloader on your device? [2] [1] https://calyxos.org/ [2] calyxos.org/lock
Not using it currently but they recently released some test builds of android 16. And yeah aiui bootloader relocking is supported for devices that are compatible. https://old.reddit.com/r/CalyxOS/comments/1t3tdt6/calyxos_pr...
The problem with lagging is that only some of the security patches are backported to older androids, so the project would have to backport remaining ones themselves. Let's be real, no one does that in CalyxOS for all the supported devices.
Out of their 15 supported "modern devices" 10 are pixels.
Their extended support phones (6 devices) has three pixels as well. Might as well get more modern and secure OS instead (A16 with fixes and working call recording for example) :)
