Is Graphene OS good? Any downsides? I need to get a new phone soon.

The only real downside is that the developers are divas. Also, there's something to be said about the security of a Google manufactured device and thinking your custom firmware protects you from them, however really that's true of any device, and the security benefits of sandboxing and other features may outweigh this.
