Comment on A guide to a longer lasting Smartphone.
nudnyekscentryk@szmer.info 11 months agoFairphone offers factory refurbished devices, but they are still ridiculously bad deal. A refurbished Fairphone 4 (a device couple of years old) sells for $30 less than a brand new one. Sure, you still get warranty, but it is a $600 second hand device after all.
I don’t know where you got “a couple of years old” from. Do you mean, that the Fairphone 4 in general is a couple of years old?
Because, on the website it says the refurbished devices are: “After less than a month of Fairphoning, the phone is returned” So the Fairphone was only in use for max 4 weeks. I would still count that as mostly first hand :)
Fairphone 4 was released in 2019.

I didn’t mean a second hand Fairphone, I mean a second hand whatever phone.
