    Actually, they do.

    The Fairphone 3 was upgradable to the Fairphone 3+ by buying spare parts like the camera and installing them yourself.

    The thing is that phones don’t really need upgrades.

        Yeah and you didn’t really need any of them.

        A smartphone from 9 years ago is still enough hardware to handle everything a smartphone needs to do.
