Real unfortunate news for GrapheneOS users as Revolut has decided to ban the use of ‘non-google’ approved OSes. This is currently being posted about and updated by GrahpeneOS over at Bluesky for those who want to follow it more closely.
Edit: had to change the title, originally it said Uber too but I cannot find back to the source of ether that’s true or not…
Hypothetically the hardware could have been modified, but that would take some insane level of a determined attacker to be fabricating modified pixels just to sell them on the used market.
It also comes with a hardware auditor, although you need another trusted graphene phone to use it. I don’t know about the details, but sounds very hard to mess with it.

No, Auditor can be installed on any Android phone. It’s even available on the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.attestation.auditor.play
You can even perform a remote verification, which uses GrapheneOS servers and doesn’t require a second device at all: https://attestation.app/tutorial#scheduled-remote-verification
