While they were happy with what the fairphone 4 brought to the table, they seem to like what was changed for the fairphone 5.
What are you guys’ opinions on this? A welcome change? would you get one if your phone died within the next year?
We talked about this a while back. Curious if people’s thoughts have changed since then on the Fairphone 5.
Point 2 is incredibly frustrating. That the ewaste problem has become so much better understood and yet the trend is to keep creating more of it.
I think Pine64 is making Bluetooth earbuds, but like their other stuff it aims to be super hackable and fixable. Wish that was the norm instead of solvent welding.
Tell this to apple. They’re incredibly frustrating to replace yourself, if you even do so.
Absolutely. I’ve seen plenty of devices where self-repair was an “eh” afterthought at best.
Apple offensively attacks your attempts to fix the thing you purchased yourself with your own hard-earned money. They’re positively evil.
Which is why it’s so annoying watching all the other mainstream companies feel compelled to just ape them in every way.
