We know when Fairphone will announce its sixth sustainable phone. We won't have to wait long, as the Fairphone 6 is expected this month. That's sooner than usual!
I bought the 4 a few months before they announced the 5. I felt betrayed because I expected them to announce a fairphone 4+, like they did with the 3…
I was expecting them to make phones of theseus that you can upgrade for years but that’s clearly not what they are going for :(
I hope that there are components from the 6 that can be used to upgrade the 5
God damn it i just bought the 5
Fairphone has a quite long software support. Your phone won’t be worse with something new. But sometimes they slow with new major updates
I know i bought this thing not intending to replace it for the next decade or two
thanks for your sacrifice.
but that isn’t a problem with faifone, your phone will last a long time

Yeah, same. I have a FP3+ and was hoping to wait until 4+ came out, but I guess not…
Same, but it will be some time until it gets released. The 5 is supported until 2033 I think.
Same. If FP6 has a smaller form factor and an amazing camera I will be very annoyed.
It’s the classic trap.
Wait long enough to be sure that a product is actually good, and poof, the next model comes out.
