 Both are supported. Depends on your personal preference. If you plan to use it many years I would go with the 8.

 We thought about this a lot, and why rollout expensive phones with performance an AI features not really used outside Google Play Services when you have amazing and available Pixel 6 phones.

Also, for price of Pixel 8, you can get 2.5 Phi Daisy (Pixel 6 + GrapheneOS + Free Unlimited Support) https://phi.company/daisy

 Because you should never buy a phone with Graphene OS preinstalled when you can change the ROM easily by yourself. 😉 Why should one trust a thrid party...

 I'm going with the Pixel 7a to start my journey with #grapheneos. The newer models are still too expensive for my budget.

 Yes, we went with Pixel 6 because it is still amazing and good deal.

 The Pixel 6 is enough and is the first Google chip, the Tensorflow Processing Unit (TPU).
