Yes. I primarily am interested in removing hardware (and its related software) I don't use. Things like user facing camera and most of the back facing cameras; ml processing hardware.

I would pay for it with just those things removed, but would be more excited if I could exchange those parts for other things I do use. Like more battery/cpu/ram.

Currently I use a pixel7a, and the last few phones I have bought have been pixel phones. I haven't been excited about a new pixel in a while because I don't really care about the features they have been adding. I get new ones as I break them. I tend to buy the pixel phones because its pretty easy to root and modify.

Getting something with pixel-ish hardware that has more hardware focused on what I use it for and running either stock android or something graphenOS would be an instant buy for me.
