I visited 3 stores looking for the pixels 7a. One of these stores (best buy) sells it at a 20% discount for only 2 weeks, brand new, 128 GB, so I may go for it to buy and nuke to install graphene OS, then relock it.

A poster suggested me to avoid verizon, because they lock the bootloader to prevent you installing anything else.

This one seems to be a pixels directly from google: on a table displaying other google devices and earbuds, but I wouldn’t want to buy something I cannot relock on non-stock software.

ETA: what port does it use for charging?

    I just picked up a 7a directly from Google, unlocked. That’s honestly the only way I recommend going about it, especially if the plan is to install Graphene.

    USB-C for charging and data.
