Been looking at the Fairphone 6 and damn, support until 2033? That’s actually insane.
The whole replaceable parts thing is pretty sick too. Battery goes bad? Just swap it instead of dropping $800 on a new phone or getting the battery replaced for $100
Probably gonna throw /e/OS on it too because why not.
What’s everyone else using? Anyone actually have experience with Fairphone or am I just getting hyped over nothing?
Thats sadly a US problem, I live in the EU and can buy it for maybe 680USD. If the price is the biggest problem for you then that’s great news about the phone
Yeah, if I lived in Europe it’d be almost a no brainer. Although the lack up upgrade path without buying a completely new phone is still kind of a bummer. I’ve had my iPhone for 3 years and never needed anything with it repaired. By the time something in this phone does break, I’ll likely be due for an upgrade anyway. Wish I could buy a Fairphone and slowly upgrade the parts so I would no longer be tied to an upgrade cycle. To me that’s way more attractive than a highly repairable phone.
