I have had my fairphone 5 since October, and I am contempt with it, ive noticed a few software bugs and made the customser support team aware about them, and while I’ll admit, their responses are rather low at times, ive never had a problem with attitude or unhelpfulness so far.
I will do what I can to genuinely keep this phone going until the software updates stop, being able to buy and replace the battery for a respectable 20 quid is incredible.
I’m also very excitied to see what 2027 brings as that is the year manufacturers are required, if they want to sell in the EU, to make their phones extremely repairable

I’m writing this on a Fairphone 5 right now, the hardware is great, the only slight issue is the USB C Port is a little looser than I would like, not enough for a problem, alas.
The main issue currently is the software, there’s a few well known bugs that cause annoyances that the Fairphone forum widely know about, one of which requires you to hold the power button down and force restart the phone. I am confident that the developers and customer support are aware of these bugs and are working to fix them.
Overall I’m happy with it, £700 isn’t too bad for a phone that I’m going to try to keep for the whole 8 to 10 promised security patches. Sure its doesn’t have flagship specs, but no day to day tasks for me require that power.

Said this in a similar post, but the legislation doesnt prevent companies serializing their components, tying them to the software. Preventing completely independent repairs.

Is there any modern day android phones that work without the battery. I feel like they’d probably run POST checks to make sure there’s a battery inside. Maybe fairphoness?
- Comment on How Signal walks the line between anarchism and pragmatism 11 months ago:
The concern with Session is that theyre based in Australia, a country that is in the 5 eyes, and their government passed a bill forces companies to provide a backdoor when ordered to, the company cannot deny to create this, and they can’t declose that they got ordered to ether. [A great video talking about said bill] While the Session devs say their services are resilient to these threats, [see their FAQ] it’s best to remain cautious.

I’ve always had sloppy handwriting, but I had to handwrite a note for someone and I’ve never seen my handwriting so neat! I’ve not had to write anything with a pen or pencil for at least 2 years. But all of a sudden, its clear, neat and legible, even my cursive is pretty clear too!
