In a bid to reduce global electronic waste, Fairphone has created a smartphone that owners can repair themselves. What makes its technology so sustainable?
If you take 5 years of warranty and 8 years of SW support into consideration, the 700€ pricetag is actually very competitive. How much money do you spend in the same time frame on other smartphones? 1000? 2000?
Less than 700?
You can get a equally good phone for 350€ and upgrade after 3 years and at least the second generation is gonna be better than the Fairphone. The only point for the FP is that it has a headphone jack, which I really like, but apart from that its cheaper to go with cheap midrange phone and upgrade after 2 1/2 or 3 years
