I've been running both (Calyx and Graphene) since the Pixel 4 XL, then Pixel 6 Pro and now on my 7 Pro. I go back to Calyx only when I read there's a disruptive change, and I always end coming back to Graphene.

From my experience, GrapheneOS is the one Android OS that comes the closest to complete control of your device.

As with everything else in life, your mileage may vary.
