In a bid to reduce global electronic waste, Fairphone has created a smartphone that owners can repair themselves. What makes its technology so sustainable?
For anyone wondering, I’m typing this comment on my Fairphone 4s, almost a year old now and still works as new, honestly haven’t had a single issue. I’ve had various androids before but none lasted more than a couple years, after a year or so they all started getting slower and developing other problems, the main reason I bought this one is because I want one that actually lasts longer.
Thanks for the comment, shame I had to scroll to the very bottom of the page to find feedback from an actual user. I’m considering getting a 5 to replace my Pixel so this was helpful.
I have the Fairphone 4 as well, also about a year old. Still as no and only had one issue. Sometimes the screen glitches out and starts to react to ghost inputs.
However there was very easy fix. Just open it up and reconnect the screen cable. Worked perfectly.
Imagine if this was an issue on an iPhone. I’d then have to pay god know have many dollars to fix it at an Apple Store.
