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?

    I think they probably dont repair their phones. Tbh my phones usually stopped working with software before anything breaks behind, with the exception of the screen.

      My experience as well. Fortunately, I was able to remedy this by flashing a fresh install of LineageOS. Though, I do understand that not every phone is able to do this and even if it is, the process can look intimidating for newbies.
