Yeah, i’d love a Fairphone but it’s 5 times the price of the HMD and I just don’t care that much for processing power or the camera. I just use my phone for messaging, playing music, banking and sudoku.
I bought the Pulse for £100 new.
Comment on I want a phone I can actually fix, and Fairphone’s record growth shows the world does too

Yeah but HDM only offers 2 years of OS upgrades according to their own specs page. Fairphone offers 8 years. They have to get the software as well as the hardware.

Yeah, there’s no doubt the Fairphone is a better phone. There’s definitely issues with the HMD. I don’t think the Fairphone is 5 times better though.

Sony is the only available manufacturer of phones that still makes something that feels smaller, albeit only on one plane since theyre just less wide. I really enjoy it, but something even smaller like the z3 compact would be great.
